National Chocolate Covered Anything Day

Get Creative with National Chocolate Covered Anything Day

Dec. 16th is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day! It’s the perfect day to get creative and indulge in some delicious chocolatey goodness. But why settle for plain old chocolate-covered strawberries when you can go all out and cover something truly unique? Here are some ideas to get your mouth watering and have fun celebrating this decadent holiday.

Fruit & Veggies

Chocolate-covered fruit is a classic for a reason! But why not spice things up a bit with some unexpected fruits, like pineapple or watermelon, or even vegetables like asparagus? The possibilities are endless, so don’t be afraid to experiment. For an extra special twist, try rolling your creations in chopped nuts or sprinkles before they harden.

Meats & Cheese

Meat and cheese may sound like an odd combination with chocolate, but trust us – it works! Try covering bacon strips in semi-sweet or white chocolate for a savory treat that will satisfy the most discerning of taste buds. Or how about coating some cubes of cheddar cheese in milk chocolate? Yum! Just make sure you don’t leave them out too long; they won’t last nearly as long as regular candy bars. As an added bonus, these unique treats make great gifts during the holidays.

Sweet Treats

Sometimes you just want something sweet to snack on instead of all that savory stuff we mentioned earlier. Fortunately, there are plenty of classic confections that pair perfectly with chocolate – think marshmallows, graham crackers, pretzels, Oreos…the list goes on and on! Put your own spin on s’mores by dipping large marshmallows in dark chocolate; everyone will be asking where you got such a unique idea!

So if you’ve been looking for a way to celebrate National Chocolate Covered Anything Day this year (and let’s face it – who isn’t?), look no further than these creative ideas! Whether you’re making something sweet or savory – whatever floats your boat – nothing beats homemade treats made with love (and lots of melted chocolate!). So get creative and show off your culinary skills with these delectable recipes – your taste buds (and tummy) will thank you later!
