VALENTINE GIFT: Heart-Shaped Cheesecake

January 21, 2013 at 8:26 am · Filed under Cookies-Cake-Pastry, Valentine's Day

It’s just a few weeks until Valentine’s Day. We’ll be posting some special gift ideas that catch our eye.

First up are these heart-shaped cheesecakes from Harry & David:

The New York-style cheesecake sits atop a chocolate cookie crust.

It’s topped with a layer of semisweet chocolate and a white chocolate drizzle.

A couple can split one of the two 12-ounce cheesecakes for dessert, and the second one for breakfast.

Or, freeze the second cheesecake for future nibbling.

Buy the cheesecakes online at HarryAndDavid.com.
