What treats are on the menu for Valentines Day ?

Going through all our traditional holidays and special celebrations we all have and do present a challenge for us healthy conscious people.
I seem to find a way to make the transition with most recipes but not with out some trial and error.
Face it ...in the real world most people who eat healthy occasionally have a treat here and there .
Moderation is definitely the key.
I will attempt to make a recipe I totally transformed that was red velvet inspired.Taking old recipes we have in our recipe boxes from the old days is fun to me.
I am sure it will not taste exactly the same but that's a good thing in my world .

I will call them "Chocolate Cranberry Delights"

Vegan butter can be used and ground flax seed instead of eggs makes this vegan if you need that.
I don't use eggs anymore in my baking, it saves me from "running out" of them and I get more flax seed in my diet. A win win. I also think it has a better texture when I use ground flax seed.
The exact formula to replace eggs is 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed with 3 tablespoons of water.
*Note that eggs in smaller quantities when replacing is best typically its 2 or 3 .When something requires large amounts of eggs...not so much and not for everything.
The solution to making them free of a lot of fat calories I also will use applesauce and light olive oil.

I will post a picture and the exact recipe shortly .I am getting ahead of myself here. I need to test it first but I just could not wait to share with you my "valentine" treat .

Im off to go bake and will be back with results.

See you soon.
In the meantime...
Happy Eating
