Sweet and slightly tart fresh blueberries are lightly covered in dark chocolate and then sprinkled with coconut. This is an irresistible sweet snack that doubles as a quick and easy dessert too.
Have you ever had that crazy “aha” moment where you wonder why you never thought of something before now? My sister, Jenny, called me a few days ago and told me that she had been craving a dessert and there was nothing sweet in her house, so she melted a few chocolate chips and poured them over blueberries.
When she couldn’t stop talking about this new treat, I decided I’d better try it right away. She was right, oh so very right. Who knew that chocolate-covered blueberries would be even more tempting than the ever-popular chocolate covered strawberries? Barefeet In The Kitchen creator video with Mary YounkinPlay Video
