cookies ‘n’ creme strawberries

April 7, 2015

My assignment for the family Easter dinner was desserts. I love making the desserts and every year I try to make a nice variety. To make sure fruit was well represented, I chose to make chocolate covered strawberries as one of the dessert choices.

Typically, I dip the strawberries in a good quality semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate and pipe some white chocolate as an accent.

This year, I added an additional variety – cookies ‘n’ creme dipped strawberries! They were extremely easy to make. I simply melted a couple of large Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme chocolate bars, and that is what I used to dip the strawberries in! No added ingredients – just the melted candy bars. Simple.

And, you know what? They were really good! The white chocolate went so well with the strawberries and there was a nice little crunch factor!

So, this year the chocolate covered strawberry contingency was well represented. Give the cookies ‘n’ creme a try – I think you will be pleasantly surprised! Or, try using another favorite candy bar. I think a chocolate mint candy bar would be a nice option! :)
