Not Your Usual Chocolate Covered Strawberries

I love the holidays, but mostly because of the food associated with them. Usually strawberries are a summer treat, but if your like me and you get to enjoy some warm weather over the holidays, these are a great option for dessert.

Ingredients

1 carton large strawberries
1 package bakers white chocolate
green sugar
red sugar

Directions

Wash and dry large strawberries. Do not cut off tops, it looks more appealing and is easier to dip. Heat white chocolate over low-medium heat. Wax paper is again needed to let the strawberries dry on. Dip the strawberries halfway in the white chocolate. Then dip the strawberries a quarter of the way in sugar. Place on the wax paper and let dry. Then, place the strawberries in the refrigerator and let cool for a couple hours. These are best served cold.

Feel free to get creative with the sugar. I normally use a color that reflects the holiday, orange for Halloween or red and green for Christmas. Blue is also really cute for Fourth of July because then the strawberry is red, white, and blue. Enjoy!
