2 Valentine Desserts That Will Impress Your Main Squeeze (Or Yourself)

With the Winter Holidays behind us, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Whether you celebrate the day of love or not, we are here with some promising recipes for Valentine desserts that will surely have you smiling from ear to ear. If you have never thought of baking for that special someone or for a family member that you love on Valentine’s before, this is the best opportunity to try something new this year!

From the curious CBD newbie to the seasoned edibles foodie, these two recipes are simple and straightforward to make. You’ll have a ton of fun making these delicious treats even if you’re not trying to impress a romantic partner. So, get ready, and let’s get started on this baking adventure together!

Flourless CBD Chocolate Cake

There’s nothing like having a posh looking Chocolate Valentine cake to end the night with this flourless CBD dessert inspired by Delish.com. It takes 10 minutes of prep time and a total of an hour and a half to complete the dessert.

Ingredients

Directions for the cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees while you grease an 8” pan.
  2. Melt your organic dark chocolate bar and butter in the microwave for one minute at a time until melted.
  3. Stir the mixture until chocolate and butter have mixed thoroughly.
  4. Add sugar and espresso into the chocolate mixture, then whisk until everything’s combined.
  5. Add in your eggs until the mixture is smooth. And, lastly, add your cocoa powder to everything.
  6. Pour your batter into your pan and bake for about 35 minutes, then let the cake rest for 15 minutes.

Directions for the ganache

  1. Heat your heavy cream in a small saucepan until it simmers.
  2. Pour the hot cream into the Tasty Cocoas CBD chocolates to combine.
  3. Pour the ganache over the cake, and place it into the refrigerator for 10 minutes until set.
  4. Add some raspberry or strawberries to the top for garnish.

There you have it! The great thing about this recipe is that you can substitute a few of the ingredients to cater to your personal taste. It’s flourless so it can be served to those who have special dietary preferences. It’s also suitable for those who are allergic to wheat but would like to enjoy some dessert after a romantic Valentine’s meal. This Valentine cake is so simple; it’s the one thing you won’t have to stress about this Valentine’s day!

CBD Tiramisu Bites

If your lover doesn’t have a thing for chocolate, make sure you check out this cute little Valentine dessert from Myrecipes.com for an out-of-this-world fruity dessert made with ladyfingers and cream.

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp of any kind of berry preserves (blueberry, raspberry, or strawberry)
  • 1 tbsp of orange liqueur or 1 tbsp of Elixinol Hemp Extract – CBD tincture in Citrus Twist flavor
  • 1 (3 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup of sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ladyfingers, halved crosswise
  • 8 fresh berry to match the preserve you used (blueberry, raspberry, or strawberry)

Directions

  1. Place your fruit preserve into a small microwave-safe bowl on high for 20 seconds, then stir in your orange liqueur.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat your cream cheese and sugar at medium speed until it’s creamy. It will take approximately one minute with an electric mixer.
  3. Stir in your orange liqueur or your Elixinol Hemp Extract – CBD tincture in Citrus Twist flavor.
  4. Take another bowl for your heavy cream and beat it with your electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  5. Fold this mixture into your cream cheese for an airy and fluffy texture between the ladyfingers.
  6. Put the mixture into a piping bag or a zip-top plastic bag. If you use a zip-top plastic bag, do not seal it and snip one of the bottom corners of the bag to make a hole to squeeze the mixture out.

Assembly

  1. Start by layering one ladyfinger half onto the bottom of a small glass (approximately 1½ oz).
  2. Drizzle about ½ tsp of your berry preserve onto the ladyfinger, then pipe a small amount of the cream cheese mixture evenly into the glass.
  3. Repeat the procedure until you reach the top, then garnish the top layer with a berry.
  4. Cover the glass and chill for 2 hours before serving.

This fun Valentine dessert is very light and refreshing after a delicious Valentine’s meal—and you won’t have to break the bank to make it. The ingredients are easy to find, and preparation time is only 30 minutes. You can also alternate different types of berries with other fruits, such as peaches and apricots.

Make this Valentine’s Day special with these two very different but very delicious desserts and let us know how you enjoyed it by substituting your own CBD variations!

The holidays are a time of joy and celebration with your nearest and dearest, but it can also be an incredibly stressful time of the year for some of us. 

So, what can you do differently than years previous that will not only step up your mixology skills but can also knock the tension down by a few notches?

Top 3 CBD Holiday Drink Recipes

Whether you are CBD-curious or you are a CBD veteran, you will definitely want to try making your own edibles with these incredibly easy and delicious classic recipes with a new spin. Festive and fun, these recipe inspirations are going to be a big hit at your next holiday celebration.

Each CBD drink recipe is unique and straightforward to replicate. They are based on original recipes found on the web and modified to become CBD infused drink recipes. They are all non-alcoholic but full of flavor. Here are our picks for the top three CBD holiday drink recipes with our own Healthy Hemp Oil spin on it.

Candy Cane Julep

We found this sweet recipe by Tatanisha from awortheyread.com and it gave us all the holiday feels. The original creator made this drink because of their love for everything peppermint. With a swap for a few ingredients, this can quickly become a holiday favorite.

Ingredients

  • 2-3 oz. of Cranberry Ginger Ale (or Ginger Ale mixed with Cranberry juice)
  • A couple of drops of Tasty Hemp Oil: Spearmint Flavored CBD oil drops (available in 300 mg or 1000 mg of CBD per 1 oz.)
  • 1 oz. of simple syrup or Mint simple syrup (Coffee syrup dispensers)
  • 1 cup of crushed ice
  • Candy Cane for stir stick/garnish
  • A sprig of mint and fresh pine

Modification Note: You can use simple syrup because the minty flavor comes from the spearmint flavored CBD oil, but for extra mintiness, you can use peppermint or Mint simple syrup. Similarly, to retain the Candy Cane aspect of the Candy Cane julep, it’s best to use a red-colored drink like Cranberry Ginger Ale, but the CBD infused drink recipe is very versatile, and you can switch it up however you’d like.

Directions

  1. Add the syrup and CBD oil to the bottom of a glass.
  2. Add your crushed ice.
  3. Fill to the rim with the Ginger Ale.
  4. Add your candy cane stir stick to mix the syrup and CBD oils around.
  5. Garnish with a sprig of mint and fresh pine for the holiday upgrade.

Cranberry-Citrus Sparkler

What’s more synonymous with the holidays than recipes with cranberries in them? This next CBD drink recipe is all about that. It’s toast-worthy and pleasantly fancy—here’s our spin on the Cranberry Fizz Mocktail thanks to Thistlewoodfarms.com.

Ingredients

Modification Note: For something enjoyable, if you’ve got the time, instead of using the CBD tincture and cran-apple juice, you can try melting some of our CBDfx: CBD Gummies into some water and substituting that—simply add the gummies to a pan, add around 3 oz. of water to cover (and prevent sticking and burning), and heat to around 150 degrees Fahrenheit!

Directions

  1. Combine the sugar and ground cinnamon until they’re entirely blended, then put aside in a pile on a plate or cutting board.
  2. Rub a wedge of lemon or lime around the rim of your serving glass.
  3. Dip the rim of the glass into the sugar mix and wiggle it until the rim is fully covered.
  4. Fill the glass with ice.
  5. Add the Cran-Apple juice and the CBD tincture (or the melted-gummy substitute!).
  6. Add a splash of fresh lemon or lime juice.
  7. Top off with the sparkling cider or Ginger Ale.

Spicy Apple Cider-tini

Food and drink play an enormous role in the holiday season. As such, if you are wondering how you can make CBD a part of your holidays with some new recipe inspiration, look no further than this warm and spicy mocktini as your pre-dinner cocktail. Thanks to the inspiration from Rachelcooks.com for her Ginger Cinnamon Apple Cider Mocktail, now we have just the right drink for a fall party.

Ingredients for the Spicy Simple Syrup

Ingredients for the Cider-tini

  • 1 cup of apple cider
  • 2 tbsp. of the spicy simple syrup
  • Ice for the shaker
  • Cinnamon and sugar mixed for rimming the serving glass
  • Slice of apple and cinnamon stick for garnish

Modification Note: If you don’t have apple cider, you can match the heavier texture of the cider with a bit of applesauce with apple juice. And if you like extra spiciness, it’s better to grate a bit of ginger than adding a few thin slices. The richness of the vanilla flavored CBD oil will enhance the cinnamon taste, but if you prefer to add the natural flavored CBD oil instead, that works too.

Directions

  1. Add the sugar, cinnamon sticks, water, and ginger root to a small saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Heat until sugar is dissolved, then let cool completely before straining to remove cinnamon and ginger.
  3. Dip the rim of your glass into some apple cider before dipping it into the cinnamon/sugar mixture.
  4. Add ice, apple cider, Vanilla flavored CBD oil, and the spicy syrup to a martini shaker and shake vigorously.
  5. Pour into your prepared glass and garnish with the slice of apple and a cinnamon stick.

Bonus Drink: Chocolate-Mint Dessert Latte

We obviously can’t end this post without some type of dessert cocktail for your holiday celebration! A final shout out to alattefood.com for this easy-peasy 5-minute homemade peppermint mocha inspiration for our very own CBD latte!

Ingredients for the coffee

Ingredients for the whipped cream and toppings

Modification Note: Depending on how you take your dessert coffee, you can use the French Vanilla flavor for a richer coffee flavor, or add the peppermint CBD oil drops for a refreshing dessert coffee.

Directions for the whipped cream

  1. Pour heavy whipping cream, CBD tincture, and sugar into a mixer
  2. Whip until a thick consistency

Directions for the dessert coffee

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it’s steaming but not boiling (approximately 1-2 minutes).
  2. Add the cocoa powder, sugar, and CBD oil to the milk and whisk until milk is foamy (about 30 seconds to a minute).
  3. Pour into a mug that already has your espresso or strong coffee in it.
  4. Add whipped cream and top off with the CBD chocolates.

Rustle up some calm this Thanksgiving with these super simple CBD holiday recipes.

If you’ve ever been responsible for laying on a spread at Thanksgiving, you don’t need us to tell you it’s quite the blood pressure raiser.

And when you’re working up a sweat over a hot stove, it can be hard to know if the steam is coming from the kitchen or your ears.

But it doesn’t have to be like that. Instead of whipping yourself into a frenzy, you could prepare a meal that promotes a sense of calm and helps to maintain balance. At least until someone suggests charades.

So, this holiday season, take a leaf out of our cookbook and add some stress-busting CBD into the mix with these Thanksgiving CBD recipes.

Sausage, Sage and CBD Stuffing Recipe

Let’s start with a Thanksgiving must-have: Stuffing. Our version of this holiday essential has been adapted from a stunning recipe by Elizabeth Stark over on SimplyRecipes.com.

We love the idea of switching out boring old white bread with sweet and crumbly cornbread, and by adding the natural-flavor CBD drops, your guests are sure to be stuffed and relaxed.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf of cornbread, sliced, cubed (approx. 1cm x 1 cm) and toasted until golden
  • 4 – 6 sweet or spicy Italian sausages, casings removed and broken up into smaller chunks
  • 5 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon of canola oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cups of diced celery
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh sage
  • 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 cups of chicken stock
  • 30 drops of Natural-flavor CBD Oil Drops

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Butter a small 8×8 baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter. Leave to one side.
  3. Add canola oil to a large, deep-sided skillet and brown the sausage over medium-high heat. Break the sausage meat into bite-sized pieces as it cooks, making sure it’s nicely browned on all sides. Pour off fat and transfer the sausage to a bowl.
  4. Turn the heat to low* and add 4 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Add the onion, celery, CBD Oil Drops and a pinch of salt. Cook until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for a further minute.
  5. Add the onion, celery and CBD mixture to the toasted cornbread. Fold in the browned sausage meat, chopped herbs, and stock. Taste and add salt if required. Finally, fold in the egg and mix until combined.
  6. Spoon the stuffing into the buttered baking dish and bake until piping hot (40 minutes). It should look golden brown on top, but if it starts to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil. Serve hot!

*IMPORTANT: When cooking with CBD oil, it’s vital that you avoid exposing it directly to a high heat. This can compromise its potency and impact its overall effectiveness.

Rosemary Roasted Potatoes (Drizzled with CBD Oil)

Holiday cooking with CBD doesn’t have to be complicated, as this next recipe proves. Inspo comes from the aptly named Rosemary at An Italian In My Kitchen.

We couldn’t wait to add our own soothing spin to this mouthwatering dish. The perfect complement to Thanksgiving turkey and stuffing. Pass the potatoes!

Ingredients

  • 1.5kg (3lb) of large starchy potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
  • 4 large sprigs of fresh rosemary, washed and removed from the stem
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 6 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil
  • Half a tablespoon of sea salt
  • 2 teaspoons of oregano
  • 30 drops of Natural-flavor CBD Oil Drops

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Cook potatoes in boiling, salted water for 4-5 minutes. Drain thoroughly and rough up the outside of the potatoes by making criss-cross marks with the prongs of a fork (this will help make them nice and crispy on the outside).
  3. Place the potatoes into a mixing bowl and add the garlic and rosemary. Drizzle over the olive oil, add the CBD Drops and generously sprinkle with salt and oregano before tossing to ensure the potatoes are well coated.
  4. Dump the potatoes onto a large roasting tin and arrange into a compact single layer. Cook for around one hour and 20 minutes. Make sure to turn the potatoes regularly to ensure they crisp evenly. Serve immediately.

One-Bowl Pumpkin & Dark Chocolate CBD Cake Recipe

Would it even be Thanksgiving without a pumpkin-based dessert? No. No, it would not.

Well, thank your lucky stars we happened upon this deliciously moreish pumpkin and dark chocolate CBD cake, adapted from a recipe by Mel at Mel’s Kitchen Cafe. We’ve swapped the milk chocolate chips for chunks of dark CBD chocolate for a richer flavor and melt-in-your-mouth goodness. It’s definitely one of our favorite holiday desserts with CBD.

The best bit? The chocolate is gluten-free, vegan, and made from sustainably grown cacao harvested by local families in South America. Talk about a guilt-free CBD dessert recipe!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of canned pumpkin puree
  • Half a cup of unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 and a quarter cups of all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • Half a cup of light brown sugar
  • Half a cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 and a half teaspoons of ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • Half a cup of CBD organic dark chocolate, broken down into bite-sized chunks
  • Half a teaspoon of ground ginger
  • Half a teaspoon of ground nutmeg
  • Half a teaspoon of baking soda
  • A quarter teaspoon of salt
  • One-eighth of a teaspoon of cloves

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325F.
  2. Lightly grease a 9×9-inch glass baking dish. Set to one side.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, applesauce, brown sugar, granulated sugar and eggs until well combined.
  4. Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt and CBD chocolate.
  5. Stir mixture until there are no dry streaks. Take care not to overmix, as this may result in a dry and dense cake, instead of the light and moist dessert we’re aiming for.
  6. Spread mixture evenly in the baking dish. Bake for 40 – 45 minutes. Insert a cake tester stick into the center of the cake to ensure it’s baked all the way through.
  7. Allow the cake to cool before slicing. Serve with vanilla ice cream.

Bonus Recipe: CBD-infused Pumpkin Spice Latte

Dairy-free and naturally sweetened, we’ve taken this fall favorite (inspired by Dana @ Minimalist Baker) to new levels of mood-boosting greatness. The spice mix hits all the right notes, while the subtle inclusion of the vanilla-flavored CBD drops brings about a whole load of calm with each sip.

Raise a toast to a stress-free Thanksgiving with this simple CBD pumpkin latte recipe: 

Ingredients

  • Three-quarter cup of dairy-free milk (think: almond, cashew, coconut or even hemp milk)
  • A quarter cup of water
  • 2-3 tablespoons of pumpkin purée
  • Half a heaped teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice mix
  • One-eighth teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
  • 1- 2 teaspoons of maple syrup
  • 1 shot espresso
  • 30 drops of Vanilla-flavor CBD Oil Drops

Directions

  1. Add the dairy-free milk and water to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  2. Add the pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice mix and maple syrup. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Pour in the espresso shot and add the CBD Oil Drops. Continue to stir until smooth.
  4. You can adjust the flavor by adding more spice mix, stronger coffee, or maple syrup.

There you have it! Four incredibly easy, tasty and calming Thanksgiving CBD recipes. And don’t forget to check out these CBD holiday drink recipes, too!

You cook up a delicious dinner, a perfect combination of flavor and presentation, but did you know you can transform your regular dinner party into something truly unique with a single ingredient? That ingredient is CBD. CBD food pairings not only enhances the taste but also leaves you with the soothing, calming effects of the cannabinoid. Matching flavors could be the key to throwing an unforgettable CBD dinner party. Learn more about our favorite CBD food pairings for each course below.

Starter – Fresh Salad and Greens

Our recommended pairing: Tasty Hemp Oil’s Tasty CBD Drops in natural

When you’re enjoying a fresh spring salad or another veggie-based starter, you want those natural, crisp flavors from every vegetable matched with some simple dressing and seasonings. Adding too much or going too strong with overbearing flavors can easily offset and overpower the vegetables, resulting in unbalanced aromas and unhappy taste buds.

Natural hemp oil offers a subtle, earthy flavor that can match well with brighter greens and vegetables. Tasty CBD Drops offer a natural flavor, along with berry, vanilla, and spearmint. Using the convenient dropper system, you can take your necessary hemp oil prior to your meal or place some drops in your salad dressing or directly on your greens.

Entree – Seafood/Fish

Our recommended pairing: Elixinol’s Pure CBD Tincture 

Good seafood offers a unique combination of light, delicate, and fatty flavors all at once. Adding some bright citrus can provide more balance and depth by canceling out any excessive, overpowering fishy aromas while accentuating the subtler flavors.

For vegan and vegetarian guests, citrus flavors pair well with just about any dish with rich flavors, like thick, creamy pasta.

We recommend Elixinol’s Pure CBD Tincture, which offers a uniquely refreshing citrus flavor that comes from a blend of natural fruit and herbal extracts, naturally sweetened with Stevia. A serving of about 5 drops of this tincture offers 5 mg of CBD.

Dessert – Peach Cobbler with Ice Cream 

Our recommended pairing: Raw Relief Honey Chill Sticks from Colorado Hemp Honey

End your dinner party with a delicious sweet treat like a peach cobbler a la mode topped with raw honey from Colorado Hemp Honey. The tartness of the peaches and smooth ice cream should pair great with the rich sweetness and natural hemp flavors from the honey for a rustic dessert that doesn’t sacrifice elegance or taste. Each honey stick is made with a full-spectrum CBD hemp oil and raw Rocky Mountain honey.

Post-Dinner Drinks – Red Wine

Our recommended pairing: Tasty Cocoas CBD Chocolates from Tasty Hemp Oil

End your dinner party on a positive note by pairing your favorite bottle of red wine with Tasty Cocoas CBD Chocolates from Tasty Hemp Oil. Wine often provides a variety of complex flavors that combine tart, sweet fruits with uniquely bitter tannins. Chocolate can help to mellow out some of the more bitter flavors while enhancing the sweeter, fruitier flavors throughout. At the same time, the wine can make that chocolate taste sweeter and smoother on the palate. It ultimately carries over some of the sweetness from your dessert course without cloying your guests’ taste buds.

There currently isn’t much research on mixing alcohol and CBD, though most experts agree that the combination shouldn’t result in any adverse effects. CBD may actually help to offset some of the effects of alcohol. For example, some animal studies show that CBD may protect against the neurodegeneration that comes with alcohol use, while another study suggests that CBD’s effects may protect the liver from damage caused by alcohol. As always, moderation is key. Drink responsibly.

General Tips for Pairing CBD and Food

Pairing foods and flavors is not an exact science, but some general tips to keep in mind:

  • Balance is the key to the perfect pairing, and that comes with considering the strength of flavors in the food. A rich, creamy pasta or grilled steak naturally offers flavors that are heavier on the palate. You want lighter flavors, like citrus, lemon, or mint, that can help to lift that weight and provide greater overall balance.
  • Consider your intent. Do you want to relax after a long day, or are you simply looking to relieve aches and pains? Pairing CBD with food is about creating a complete experience that satisfies your tongue and tummy and providing the natural healing properties of CBD.
  • If you’re not sure where to start, match similar flavors. For example, if you are enjoying a roast chicken with cherry sauce, consider a berry-flavored CBD oil.

Most importantly, there aren’t any hard and fast rules for CBD and food pairings. Try experimenting with different flavors and dishes. You may make some surprising culinary discoveries.
