Whether or not you celebrate it with a special someone, this holiday is a nice excuse to treat yourself to a decadent dessert (or four…). Here are a dozen of our favorites.

Mile-High Chocolate Cake
This four-layer stunner may just render all your other chocolate-cake recipes obsolete. A generous amount of sour cream keeps the cake layers tender, and the frosting is a glossy triumph. It’s a natural fit for practically any get-together—from a simple family birthday celebration to an elaborate dinner party.
