Dark Chocolate Covered Rosé Soaked Strawberries — The Skinny Fork by Gordon Ramsay

I decided to soak mine in Rosé, but champagne (or any desired alcohol) would work JUST as well. The main thing about making these is to be super sure that your strawberries are dry DRY DRY before you dip them into the chocolate. Otherwise, the chocolate will seize and you won’t be able to dip anymore!

When taste-testing these, I found that the tips were fairly normal, but the closer you get to the stems… the more potent the strawberries were. There’s nothing wrong with that though, it’s more so just a warning.

FIRECRACKER ICE POPS

It’s that time of year again where the weather is getting hot and I’m on the lookout for simple frozen treats to help us all cool off! This recipe couldn’t be any simpler and the colors make these popsicles the perfect treat for the 4th of July! (Although the colors end up being a little more pink/purple rather than red/blue!)

FIRECRACKER ICE POPS

1/2 lbs strawberries, quartered

1/2 lbs blueberries

2 Tbsp. sugar

1 1/4 cups vanilla yogurt (or you can use plain yogurt – just add 2 Tbsp of sugar to it before using)

Puree the strawberries with a blender or food processor and add 1 Tbsp sugar. Set aside in a small bowl. Puree the blueberries, adding 1 Tbsp sugar. Pour the layers into popsicle molds – alternating in whichever order you’d like. These amounts filled my 6 molds perfectly, but depending on the size of your molds, you may have slightly different results. I used a skewer to slightly mix the layers – you can mix as much as you’d like. Freeze until solid, about 2 1/2-3 hours. Enjoy!
