Easter Chocolate Covered Strawberries

1. Start by washing the strawberries. Allow them to thoroughly drain and dry on paper towels. Your strawberries must be dry.

Easter Bunny

1. Melt 8 ounces of white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 20-second increments, stirring in between until melted and smooth. Add a few drops of white candy color for a bright white if you wish.
2. Line a baking sheet or plate with waxed paper.
3. Insert a toothpick or two into the top of a clean dry strawberry, taking care not to puncture the sides which will release juice into the chocolate and the strawberries will not set correctly.
4. Dip the strawberry in the white chocolate allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl and place it on the prepared plate or tray.
5. While the chocolate is still wet, carefully add a heart-shaped sprinkle for the nose.
6. Next, add 2 round black sprinkles for the eyes ( for a fun detail use a toothpick dipped in a small amount of white chocolate, add a little white sparkle to each eye). Add two small pink pearl sprinkles to form cheeks.
7. Place the plate in the refrigerator to set.
8. Once set, draw the mouth with an edible black food marker, using light pressure to avoid creating a hole in the chocolate.
9. Using a pair of kitchen shears or a sharp knife make a slit in the middle of a mini marshmallow being careful not to cut all the way through.
10. Pull open the marshmallow to create an ear. Press the sticky side down into a small dish of nonpareils. Repeat with another marshmallow for the second ear.
11. Using melted chocolate and a toothpick, attach the ears to the top of the bunny's head.
12. Allow to set (popping it back in the fridge for 10 minutes will set it faster than air drying).

Carrot

1. Melt 8 ounces of white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 20-second increments, stirring in between until melted and smooth. Add a few drops of orange candy color until you reach your desired shade.
2. Insert a toothpick in the strawberry and dip it into the orange chocolate allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl. Transfer it to the wax paper lined plate and allow it to set in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
3. Add about a tablespoon of the melted orange chocolate to either a piping bag or a resealable bag with the corner cut out. Drizzle some lines on the carrot for texture.
4. Allow to fully set.
