My Sister in Law used to make my brother a giant heart shaped chocolate chip cookie each year for Valentine's Day. I don't know if she still does or not. If you don't have a good recipe for one, you can usually buy them at the local shopping mall, all decorated, for any occasion.
I would try Allrecipes.com since they have holiday themed recipes including Valentines day. Also kraftfoods.com has several and verybestbaking.com does too.
A great recipe that is so easy.
1# pkg chocolate sandwich cookies
1/2 gallon ice cream (I like pepermint stick for this)
12 oz whipped topping, thawed
Outrageous Chocolate Cookies
Makes 2 dozen; Prep time: 20 minutes; Total time: 45 minutes
Do not bake the cookies to a crisp; they are meant to be soft and chewy. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for two to three days.
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, roughly chopped
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chunks
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Heat chopped chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until almost melted; do not overheat. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla on high speed until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low; beat in melted chocolate. Mix in flour mixture until just combined. Stir in chocolate chunks.
3. Drop heaping tablespoons of dough 2 to 3 inches apart onto baking sheets. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until cookies are shiny and crackly yet soft in centers, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on sheets 10 minutes; with a thin metal spatula, transfer to racks to cool completely.
I'd probably go with "Angels on Horseback". Basically, it is oysters wrapped with half a slice of bacon and broiled until the bacon is done, but there are a number of seasoning variations. The aforementioned sites should have some interesting recipes, but if you don't find them there just google "Angels on Horseback" and you'll find a mess of them.
