Red Velvet BarsThese red velvet bars with cream cheese drizzle are wonderful and really ascetically pleasing. They would make a wonderful gift for that special someone this Valentine’s Day. If you ran out and spent money every time a holiday comes up you’d go broke! The hubby and I only give handmade gifts for our Valentine’s Day, and this year he will very likely get these delicious red velvet bars!
