Have you ever done a chocolate fondue? We did orange slices, strawberry's, apples, nuts, and cherry's.

Answer 2

2 # powdered sugar
1/2 # melted butter
1 can eagle brand milk
2 cups chopped nuts
1 large pkg. coconut
Mix all together and chill for 30 minutes
Take up by teaspoonfuls and wrap around a marachino cherry to make a ball. Freeze on cookie sheet overnight.
Take melting chocolate or
1 large bag chocolate chips, 1 small bag butterscotch chips and 1/8 # parafin wax and melt over low heat. Dip the balls.

You can also coat pretzils, oreo's, orange slice candies, mint balls, peanutbutter balls, nuts of any kind, marshmallows, cereals, let your mind go and experiment.

Answer 3

super easy- go to the bulk food store and get some chocolate wafers(ask the cashier if not sure the type). fill your kitchen sink with warm-hot water. Put the wafers in a small plastic bowl and place the bowl floating in the sink. when the chocolate melts dip the strawberries in and let them dry on a sheet of wax paper (so they don't stick) add more hot water to the sink as needed.

Answer 5

These are grrrrreat with cheesecake too.

Tiramisu Bon Bons

1 tray store-bought tiramisu
1/2 pound bittersweet chocolate cut into small pieces, or bittersweet chocolate chips

Using a melon baller or small ice cream scoop, spoon out balls from the tray of tiramisu to create the bon bons. Freeze the bon bons on a cookie sheet for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Melt the bittersweet chocolate in a double boiler until smooth and glossy. Dip frozen tiramisu bon bons in melted chocolate until covered on all sides. Place the bon bons on a cookie sheet covered in parchment or waxed paper and return them to the freezer. Take bon bons out of freezer and let them thaw for about 15 minutes before serving.

Chocolate Cheesecake on a Stick

1 cheesecake (8-inch size)
1 package (12 oz size) milk chocolate chips
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening
1/2 cup chopped nuts or brittle chips
8 Popsicle sticks

Line a baking sheet with wax paper.

Cut cheesecake into equal wedges (one for each popsicle stick) and make a 1/4-inch horizontal slit in the center back of the crust of each slice of cheesecake with the tip of a knife.

Insert a wooden craft stick through the slit, halfway into each slice. Place the slices on the baking sheet, cover, and freeze overnight.

Melt the chocolate chips and shortening over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and spoon over the cheesecake slices, coating completely and allowing the excess chocolate to drip back into the saucepan.

Before the chocolate hardens, sprinkle 1 tablespoon nuts over the top of each and return to the baking sheet; freeze for 1 hour, or until the chocolate and cheesecake are frozen.
