CHOCOLATE-COVERED STRAWBERRY SNACK MIX



Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Snack Mix image

I love chocolate-covered strawberries, but that's a treat you want to make only on special occasions. With a little experimenting, I've captured the same incredible flavor in a snack I can take anywhere. Everyone is always amazed when I pull this out at a picnic or tailgate, or on a car trip. -TerryAnn Moore, Vineland, New Jersey

CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES



Chocolate Covered Strawberries image

This is the simplest version of chocolate covered strawberries I know. Paraffin was originally used instead of shortening. Turn the strawberries upside down and insert by the toothpicks into a piece of styrofoam for easy cooling, or simply place them on a sheet of wax paper. White chocolate may be drizzled over the milk chocolate for a fancier look. They are perfect for weddings when decorated with frosting bow ties, bells, butterflies, roses, etc.

This adorably pink snack mix is a simple and tasty Valentine's Day treat, thanks to the combination of two cereals that add varying texture and crunch. Heart-shaped sprinkles make it extra festive, but you can use any sprinkles you have on hand.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 16 to 18 servings (about 10 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 1.2-ounce bag freeze-dried strawberries (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 cup confectioners' sugar
5 cups crisp rice cereal squares, such as Rice Chex
4 cups honey whole-grain oat cereal, such as Honey Nut Cheerios
Three 4-ounce bars white chocolate, chopped
1 cup pink candy-coated chocolates, such as pink M&M's
1/4 cup red and white sprinkles, such as Jumbo Hearts Sprinkles and Jimmies

Steps:

  • Pulse the freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor until very finely ground and powdered in texture. Alternatively, place in a resealable bag and crush with your hands or a rolling pin until very finely and evenly ground and powdered in texture. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in the confectioners' sugar until combined. Set aside.
  • Pour the crisp rice cereal squares and honey whole-grain oat cereal into a large bowl. Put the chopped white chocolate in a medium microwave safe bowl. Microwave at 50% power in 15-second intervals, stirring occasionally, until just melted and smooth, about 1 minute. Pour the melted chocolate over the cereal mixture, then gently toss with a rubber spatula until evenly coated. Pour the strawberry-sugar mixture over the chocolate-coated cereal, then toss again until every piece is nicely coated and pink. Stir in the candy-coated chocolate and sprinkles. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 pound chocolate covered strawberries

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
3 ounces white chocolate, chopped
1 pound strawberries with stems (about 20), washed and dried very well

Steps:

  • Put the semisweet and white chocolates into 2 separate heatproof medium bowls. Fill 2 medium saucepans with a couple inches of water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Turn off the heat; set the bowls of chocolate over the water to melt. Stir until smooth. (Alternatively, melt the chocolates in a microwave at half power, for 1 minute, stir and then heat for another minute or until melted.)
  • Once the chocolates are melted and smooth, remove from the heat. Line a sheet pan with parchment or waxed paper. Holding the strawberry by the stem, dip the fruit into the dark chocolate, lift and twist slightly, letting any excess chocolate fall back into the bowl. Set strawberries on the parchment paper. Repeat with the rest of the strawberries. Dip a fork in the white chocolate and drizzle the white chocolate over the dipped strawberries.
  • Set the strawberries aside until the chocolate sets, about 30 minutes.
