I have made a pizza roll with it as well as ham and cheese rolls, so if you have some toast on hand please test it.

CAUTION! Allow them to cool down for at least 5 minutes before serving and eating because the filling is extremely hot. Double the recipe if you going to make more.

Well, you may buy as many as you want, however, keep in mind if you going to serve them if you get more there chance that you will end up with many same size strawberries.

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries Recipe

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries - Crisp and playful on your tongue, with the rich blanket of chocolate, sparking magnificent taste of delectable comfort.

Prep Time 15 minutes
CHILL Time 30 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pint about 20 medium-large strawberries with stems
  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or white vanilla baking chips Chocolate bark for dipping fruits
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut oil or unsalted butter 1 teaspoon shortening for substitute
  • *You can use additionally 2 ounces of dark chocolate or white chocolate for the drizzle
  • *You can use crushed nuts or sprinkles
  • *Almond Bark Chocolate Baking Bar -- you can find these similar chocolate barks which are fantastic for dipping at almost any store baking aisle.

Instructions

  1. Gently rinse strawberries and dry on paper towels (strawberries must be completely dry). Line cookie sheet with waxed paper or use a cookie rack.
  2. In 1-quart saucepan, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil or unsalted butter (you can use about 1 teaspoon of shortening as a substitute) over low heat, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. I used a double broiler; Place water in the bottom of the double boiler so the top of the water is about 1/2 inch below the upper pan. Then place the double boiler over low heat. Stir the chocolate constantly until it is melted. The water at the bottom of the double boiler should not come to boiling while the chocolate is melting. Stir until it is completely melted.
  3. Dip lower half of each strawberry into chocolate mixture; allow excess to drip back into the saucepan. Place on waxed paper-lined tray or cookie rack.
  4. Refrigerate uncovered about 30 minutes or until chocolate is firm, or until ready to serve.
  5. Store covered in refrigerator so the chocolate does not soften.

Notes

This is so much easier when you have 6-inch lollipop sticks.

You can get them at your craft store, such as Michaels if you are in the USA or Amazon. This is fun for the kids, and adults so you can set a couple of topping options if you have a party, such as nuts, sprinkles, coconut, etc. My favorite is with walnuts, but hazelnuts are fantastic too.

Triple Berry Galette Recipe

Triple Berry Galette Recipe

 

The Galette is a term used in French cuisine to designate various types of flat round, sometimes flaky, crusty cakes. The beauty of galette is that you can fill it with all kinds of fillings, sweet or savory. I love them all! It’s one of those desserts or pastries that are incredibly tempting and very pretty.

If your galette dough is too thick, the crust will be gummy and chewy, rather than flaky. It does not have to be perfect. Actually, I like it very much when it comes out rustic and in-prefect, but still looks like a taste of home, and beautiful.

What is your favorite galette?
I will have in the next few months more galette recipes, again sweet and savory. This one is sweet, and have that sour and tart taste due to the berries and a gentle squeeze of the lime. If you love that exact taste with a dollop of butter pecan ice cream or vanilla, then you will love this guilty pleasure galette!!!
Now let’s get to this delicious, summer delight, berrilicious recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 Pie Crust or make your own.

Homemade Galette Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 sticks cold unsalted butter cut into pieces
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt
  • 1 tbsp. Sugar
  • 1/3 cup ice cold water

Filling:

  • 1 tablespoon Strawberry or Raspberry Jam
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar
  • 1 cup Blueberries
  • 1 cup Blackberries
  • 5-6 Strawberries or 1 cup raspberries or both
  • 1/2 Lime

Addition:

  • 1 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

Crust

  1. You MAY USE Store bought Crust. Just defrost overnight in the fridge, or 30 minutes on the countertop before using it.

HOMEMADE CRUST

  1. Rub the cold, diced butter into the flour, salt, and sugar with your fingers until it’s pretty well combined and looks like breadcrumbs. Mix in the ice cold water and bring the dough together into one lump. Wrap it in plastic wrap or large ziplock bag and store in the fridge for about 30 minutes.

Rolling:

  1. Preheat an oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the pastry on a floured surface, roll out into a circle about 16-by-18-inch and 1/16 to 1/8 inch thick. Spread 1 tablespoon of peach or plum jam all around. Transfer the crust in the well greased and floured circular pie pan, or line the pan with a parchment paper. Spread evenly Strawberry or Raspberry jam.  Scatter a spoon of the flour and sugar over the rolled out pastry, leaving a border of about 3-4 inches all around the edge - This will help, so your galette bottom won't become soggy during baking and the game will give a nice flavor, and sweetness.

Filling:

  1. Wash and pat dry berries with kitchen paper towel, very gently. Place it in the middle of the disk and over the all-purpose flour and sugar combo. Close the crust over the fruit. Brush the edges of the pastry with melted butter or beaten egg. Add about 1 tablespoon of cubed butter or just use chunks or butter all around the berries, squeeze half of the lime on top over the berries and then dust it all with granulated sugar or any sweetener that you use.

Bake:

  1. Bake the Galette in the middle of the oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crust looks nicely golden brown. Allow it to cool down for a bit and enjoy it with ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
