Give me some ideas for chocolate covered ANYTHING!

[LD92599]

I'm hosting my meetup.com group this week for dessert night! I've decided that I want to dip stuff into chocolate but i need ideas!

I've thought about:
Pretzals
Oreo's
Dried Apricots
Dried Pineapple
Large Marshmallows

What else?!?

What all the PPs said. I like chocolate covered peanut butter sandwich crackers (ritz-type crackers with pb sandwiched between them, dipped in chocolate...yum!) Dried pears in chocolate are really good, too.

Reminds me of when my sister and I wanted to make frozen chocolate covered bananas from her Superheroes Cookbook. We only had a couple of bananas, so we also made frozen chocolate covered grapes. I don't recommend this. :)

crystallized ginger tastes delish dipped in chocolate. A little goes a long way since it has a bite, but it will a nice change from the other selections.

Cherries (dark cherries, not maraschino!)
Apple slices
Pear slices

Another fun idea with the chocolate fountain is to have a tray of toppings - toasted coconut flakes, chocolate shavings, toffee bits - that you can put on top of your chocolate-dipped stuff!

Small chunks of Rice Crispy Treats are yummy, too.

ETA: Those little individual cheesecake bites are super good also.

Red Jello Jigglers.


That's what worked at my house..
Especially when someone (ahem,buddyleebaby) dips them in the chocolate fountain.

I also bought a pound cake, cut it into cubes and people dunked those... it's very tasty.
