Chocolate Lava Cake

This gooey, molten center, sandwiched between rich, soft chocolate cake cannot be better than this for a Propose Day surprise.

That is sure to win their heart.

Chocolate Mousse

Chocolate mousse is light, airy, and indulgent. To prepare it, simply melt dark chocolate and fold it into whipped cream; for an extra richness, add a dash of vanilla extract or a bit of coffee to enhance the chocolate flavor. Spoon the mousse into cups, refrigerate, and top with grated chocolate or fresh berries. It is simple yet so sophisticated as to express your love without having a hassle.

Chocolate Dip Strawberries

Chocolate-dipped strawberries are the perfect treat for any romantic occasion. Melt dark or milk chocolate and dip the strawberries halfway, letting the excess chocolate drip off. To add some flair, you can drizzle the dipped strawberries with white chocolate or sprinkle them with crushed nuts. These easy-to-make treats look as luxurious as they taste, making them an excellent choice for your Propose Day surprise.

Chocolate Truffles

Chocolate truffles are best for gift and sharing. Prepare them by melting chocolate and combining it with cream. Allow the mixture to cool until it hardens enough for scooping into balls.

It's a little bite of bliss that is both simple and decadent. You will surely love it.
