Flag inspired Strawberries

photo & inspiration from  http://bakingbites.com

YES, I DID make these with 3 kids running laps around me. I was SO impressed with myself, and I thought they were rather good. Unlike my brother's girlfriend, who I quote said, “Whats with this white cream?!?!” I sarcastically said, “Its White-Chocolate, and I made em!”

Here is what you need to make these “Flag inspired strawberries”

Picture includes ingredients for
-Flag Inspired Strawberries
-Star Spangled Rice Krispy treats
- Red, White, & Blue Pretzel Rods

 FOOD-
White Chocolate (almond bark)
Strawberries
Blue sugar sprinkles (found mine at Walmart for .98)

HOUSE HOLD ITEMS-
Wax paper
cookie sheet
soup pan
container

I cut up my chocolate and put into the soup pan and heated on the oven (remember you can ALWAYS add more). I knew I was going to be “slow” at this that is why I did this on the stove compared to using a microwave. In the mean time, put some wax paper on the cookie sheet, and place sprinkles in  a container that will allow the strawberry to roll. I cleaned the strawberries  in my sink with this clever idea

fill sink with water, add 1 Cup vinegar, mix together. Add all fruit and soak for 10 minutes.

 Let Strawberries dry (or chocolate won't stick – made that mistake) Heat Chocolate till it is creamy.

Handsome helper

Grab Strawberry stem and dip ¾ way into chocolate. Allow extra chocolate to drip off. Then roll in sprinkles. Set on wax paper.

When done, place in fridge to allow chocolate to set and harden. DONE! So yummy!

Hope this will be enjoyed by all.
