Cookpad's 2018 Valentine's Day Chocolate Sweets
It's okay if you only make it at this time of year.

It's February, and the whole town is in a Valentine's mood. Every year, people are divided into those who buy and those who make Valentine's Day sweets, but if you make them yourself, you want to make something a little more elaborate than just hardening chocolate, right?

In a survey of 3,554 female users conducted by Cookpad, a recipe service, it was found that over 70% of them were considering making something homemade. So this time, we asked the Cookpad editorial team about three chocolate sweets and their recipes that they are paying attention to!

1. Biscuit Brownie

Perfect for Instagram

We previously introduced " Lotus Brownies " at Enuchi, but biscuit brownies, which are made by baking brownies with various biscuits on top, are also very popular on social media. Among them, the animal biscuits on top look cute and are sure to please children!

The moderate saltiness of "Tabekko Animals" goes perfectly with it.

The point is that it's still cute even when cut.

Brownies themselves are easy to make even for beginners, so why not give it a try using your favorite biscuits?

2. Chocolate terrine

The smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture is irresistible!

"Chocolate terrine" is a moist and smooth baked rich chocolate dough. It has a luxurious taste, but the best thing about it is that it is easy to make with just a few ingredients.

When chilled, it has a rich texture similar to raw chocolate, and when lightly warmed, it has a melting taste. It's great to serve at home!

3. Matcha Chocolate

A "Japanese" Valentine's Day might be a good idea

Lastly, we have a dessert made with everyone's favorite, matcha. The vibrant green color that brings to mind spring will surely stand out among the other chocolates.

The recommended recipe is "Matcha Fondant Chocolat" from Cookpad Cooking Video. The sweet white chocolate is enhanced by the bitter taste of matcha, making it a satisfying dessert for adults too.
