A sweet breakfast treat to impress and show your special someone how much you care this valentines day.
Enjoy!
A while back I was thinking about how much I love carbs and whilst dreaming of all things carb related I thought, “why don’t you just combine all of your favorites: hearts, carbs, chocolate, cream cheese, and strawberries to make your wildest dreams come true”. And that is just what I did my friends…I would love to introduce you to my heart shaped breakfast tarts. When dreaming up my concoction, I decided I wanted to make it a quick and easy breakfast for my hunny bun and share it with the world so you could in turn make your hunny, friend, kids, or sweet momma a breakfast that is literally filled with “love”. Happy Baking…XO.
