Bring on all of the Valentine’s Day sweetness! I love making festive recipes, especially with my girls this time of year! We have so much for Valentine’s Day and all of the whimsical treats and decorations! These Red Velvet Ice Cream Shakes are a favorite!
Desserts and sweets go hand in hand with Valentine’s Day in our house. We love decorating cookies, making chocolate-covered strawberries, having fun snack trays, and enjoying all of the festive treats! Milkshakes are a MUST and so so cute this time of year because you can really make them fit the holiday.

You know I love a sprinkle rim!
