I know it's hard to believe, but not everyone loves chocolate.
If you're looking for a easy date night desserts which are more classic than chocolate, check out these options with banoffee pie, creme brulee and tiramisu.
Banoffee pie is a classic dish. But in case you are intimidated by the name, I can assure you, you don't need to be, because this version of banoffee pie is ridiculously simple.
With caramel and bananas, it's a perfect contrast to the chocolate deliciousness above, although there IS chocolate sprinkled on the top if you just can't resist.

This is a date night dessert best made before the main event.

Time to make: 40 minutes PLUS 30 minutes crust cool time and 3 hours chill time
For years I harbored resentment against the tiramisu after an early encounter with my ex-mother in law.
On one of our first meetings, she mentioned that we would have tiramisu for dessert and I naively asked what this strange concoction was.
She replied with a haughty, "Everybody knows what tiramisu is."
Well clearly I didn't or I would have asked.
That kind of set of tone for our whole relationship.
I eventually overcame my dislike of tiramisu by proxy and I can recommend this simple take on the dish.
Number of ingredients required: 8
Time to make: 20 minutes
However unlike tiramisu, creme brulee has always been a personal top choice - more than that really, as it is my favorite dessert.
In fact, I just tested my husband by asking him what my fave was and luckily he was able to answer correctly.
This creme brulee has the addition of raspberries which just makes it even more delicious.
Number of ingredients required: 6
Time to make: 5 hours and 15 minutes by the time it sets
