Chocolate Raspberry Cookie
Well………… how nice that ‘Date Night Dinner’ is the day before Valentine’s Day…………I made this cookie last weekend and allI can say is, delicious. It has some of my favorite things………chocolate, raspberries, almonds……….and more chocolate. Bonus, it only serves two, so no leftovers…….wait!!!!!……. maybe not a bonus. Anyway, it was super easy to make, tastes like it took a lot of effort, and I think it looks like a million bucks.
So after you have served your Poor Mans Lobster (shameless plug)…….impress your sweetie with this cookie……it’s meant to be shared……..pssst it doesn’t have to be Valentines Day to share this with your sweetie 😉
