Would we eat chocolate-covered strawberries? Oooh, yes. Chocolate-covered almonds? By the handful. How about chocolate-covered Brussels sprouts?
That might be a stretch but chocolate can make anything taste good.
If you’ve been looking for an excuse to try some new foods covered in chocolate, today is the day. Monday, December 16 is National Chocolate-Covered Anything Day. Get out the fondue pot, the double boiler, heck, even the microwave-safe bowl and get ready to make dessert of everything edible.
And if you love the idea of chocolate-covered treats, but want it without the kitchen mess, check out a few of our favorite local sources:
