I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day with your loved ones — be it with families, friends etc..<\/p>\n

We had a quiet downtime, eating loads of yummy strawberries, sipping champagne & overdose on chocolates. That’s what Valentine’s Day is all about, right?<\/p>\n

Perfect excuse for a sugar-high \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

While grocery shopping over the weekend, I had a huge hankering for freshly shredded coconut. Huge! But I didn’t know what else to do with it other than sprinkling it over my morning oatmeal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Have you found yourself often looking into the pantry for inspirations? I’ve done a gazillion times. It’s essential when you have a half eaten bag of chocolate chips, literally begging to be used.<\/p>\n

Or looking for an excuse just to use it up. Either way, I had fun experimenting with this new recipe. All the while munching on a handful of chocolate chips. Yeah, never skip on snacks, people.<\/p>\n

With the food processor buzzing away (annoying noise!) in the background, I can’t help but transport back into my childhood. Wonderful memories of me begging my mom to serve up peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for breakfast, lunch & dinner. She rolled her eyes and with a gentle no, summoned me to eat up my vegetables.<\/p>\n

Well, mom<\/em>, you can’t stop me now. Can you?<\/span> \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Chocolate, orange and coconut goes hand-in-hand, and I love to believe it’s a match made in heaven. Dunking strawberries in a drippy chocolate chip orange coconut butter is better that dipping it in plain ol’ chocolate sauce.<\/p>\n

You have my guarantee.<\/p>\n

Now shut me up, and go make yourself a nice bowl of this decadent dessert. Just try not to eat it all in one sitting. Don’t sue me if you do \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
