Chocolate is a bit played out when it comes to Valentine's Day sweets. An $8 box of generic chocolates from the nearest supermarket isn't going to come close to satisfying the sweet tooth of the seasoned sweets connoisseur. Unfortunately, a lot of people don't look past their local grocer to find a good selection of interesting and higher-end Valentine's Day confections -- but we did! Here are five of our favorite must-savor Valentine's Day candies -- they are fun, unusual and will truly satisfy your Valentine's Day sweet tooth. http://www.sheknows.com/holidays-and-seasons/articles/823411/sweet-5-high-end-valentines-day-candies Holidays & Seasons Valentine's Day Valentine's Gift Ideas Lauren Fairbanks Thu, 27 Jan 2011 08:55:00 -0800 <![CDATA[Lemon Scented Linzer Cookies]]> http://www.sheknows.com/food-and-recipes/articles/823269/lemon-scented-linzer-cookies In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, I have combined a classic Linzer cookie recipe adapted from Dorie Greenspan and added a touch of lemon zest to awaken your senses. http://www.sheknows.com/food-and-recipes/articles/823269/lemon-scented-linzer-cookies Food & Recipes Dessert Recipes Baking Jamie Lothridge Tue, 25 Jan 2011 09:11:00 -0800 <![CDATA[Healthy Valentine’s Day treats]]> http://www.sheknows.com/food-and-recipes/articles/822821/healthy-valentines-day-treats The Day of Love is popularly celebrated as a day of dines, wines, and desserts, which can ultimately lead to a dreaded dietary disaster.
