Heart-Warming

Last week I bought a heart-shaped silicone muffin/cake tray and an equally heart-shaped chocolate tray from the BODUM store near my office. I tried it out today, slightly adapting the gateau au chocolat recipe by adding 5 instead of just 1 tablespoon of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder and a generous shot of Cointreau. The result is a bit denser and slightly less rich, but very pretty anyway.

You might want to give it a try, say, if you're in someone's bad books and need to suck up to them or *highly original* for Valentine's Day.
