Recipe: Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Cocktail

From: Duplin Winery

Ingredients:
  • ½ cup milk chocolate chips
  • 8 large strawberries, hulled and washed
  • 1 cup Nutella
  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • 2 cups frozen strawberries
  • 2 large scoops vanilla ice cream (about 2 cups)
  • 1 packet Berry Bliss Sweetzer mix
  • ½ bottle Duplin Burgundy
Directions:
  1. Melt milk chocolate chips in a small wide saucepan set over low heat on the stove or in a small, wide bowl in the microwave. Microwave according to package directions on the chocolate chip brand you choose. Dip 4 large coupe or wine glasses into the melted chocolate to a dept of about ½ inch. Set glasses aside in a cool place, but do not refrigerate.
  2. Gently dry each strawberry with a towel. Cut a ¼- to ½-inch deep slit into the bottom of each strawberry. Cover one half of each strawberry in Nutella. Use a butter knife to gently spread marshmallow fluff on the other half of each strawberry. Each strawberry should have a generous portion of Nutella on one side and a marshmallow fluff on the other, with a little bit of the strawberry’s red color showing at the bottom. Refrigerate the berries.  
  3. Add frozen strawberries, vanilla ice cream, Berry Bliss Sweetzer and Duplin Burgundy to a blender container. Cover blender container and whirl mixture at high speed until frosty, adding more wine if mixture seems too thick.
  4. Pour mixture into the chocolate-rimmed glasses. Fill glasses to the bottom edge of the chocolate rim. Balance 1 or 2 of the chocolate-marshmallow strawberries on the rim of each glass. Using a torch lighter, gently toast the marshmallow side of each berry. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
