I found this idea online and couldn't stop thinking about them. I knew they would be perfect for our annual Super Bowl party.
Ingredients:
Chocolate infused Vodka
Strawberries
1 tub Baker's Milk Chocolate Dipping Chocolate
Directions:
Rinse off strawberries.
Marinate strawberries in air tight container with chocolate vodka for at least 24 hours
<-----this is essential!
Take strawberries out after 24 hours and pat dry. Then dip in chocolate, refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to harden.
These are DELICIOUS! Everyone will love these!!!

I've also seen marshmallow vodka but I think the whole chocolate on chocolate would be good. I have a friend that wants me to bring over a dessert to go with chocolate wine and I think this is it!
DeleteWow, what a great idea! I love chocolate covered strawberries but have never thought to add vodka to the mix! Thanks for sharing! Stopping by from 33 shades of green...

I think I love you.
ReplyDeleteHow long will the strawberries hold for?? I am interested in selling these at our bar
ReplyDeleteThey won't hold much longer than 24 hours and they must stay refrigerated. I hope they sell really well for you at your bar. Let me know how it goes! I'm sure you won't have to worry about storing them for long. :)
DeleteOmg love it
ReplyDeletethis is unique and it is very easy to do!
ReplyDeleteWould this work with rum? I have mango flavoured rum - and cherry flavoured rum. Looking for interesting ways to use them for a party next weekend.
ReplyDeleteI made these last night. Holy Moly! Way too strong for me! I not a drinker, so that may have something to do with it, but I couldn't even taste the strawberry. At all. Definitely not for me. Maybe soaking them in strawberry vodka would leave more flavor? I don't know. I won't waste any more money on the alcohol, though. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that! Yes, if you are not a drinker then you probably will think they are too strong. I do not consider myself someone that likes super strong drinks either. My friends and I enjoy the fruity type "girly" drinks. I would never be able to drink straight vodka (flavored or not) and we don't find these to be too strong.
DeleteI will say the 24 hour mark is KEY! I have marinaded shorter and longer and both leave it too strong. 24 hours is a must!
I have thought about trying whipped cream vodka with a side of whipped cream to dip!
We did it with the Whipped Cream vodka and it was devine!!
DeleteWas wondering if you could re-use the now infused strawberry chocolate vodka to make a chocolate covered strawberry jello shot?
ReplyDeleteI am not sure but definitely sounds like it's worth a try! My husband always drinks up the leftover strawberry infused choc vodka. :)
DeleteThis is interesting, I was just wondering what the point of soaking them in chocolate vodka is...
ReplyDeleteI imagine the chocolate taste of the vodka would get overran by the actual chocolate coating.
Which would just leave behind the flavorless burn of the vodka... Is that desirable?
A lot of the flavored type of vodkas don't seem as overpowering as actual plain vodka. It is just fun to put an adult twist on an enjoyable dessert. Everyone at the parties tend to think it is so different and clever that they can't stop eating them. I have done an alcohol infused batch and then just your regular choc covered berries so people have the choice.
DeleteWhy hadn't I thought of this, purely genius idea. Thank you very much for sharing, I see this is our 4th of July lineup.
ReplyDeleteTry soaking them in the chocolate vodka for 24 hours, cutting the tops off, and hollow out with a paring knife, add philidelphia cheesecake in the top, dip in chocolate, and then drizzle chocolate over them!!
ReplyDeleteGREAT for a birthday party!
Huge Hit!!!
Thanks so much for the idea! This sounds amazing! Glad you enjoyed them!
DeleteCould not find choc vodka so used plain vodka. Anyone just tried plain vodka? Waiting for the 24 hrs to pass.
ReplyDeleteI have not tried plain vodka. I hope they turned out ok for you. I typically find the chocolate vodka next to all the other flavored vodkas out there.
DeleteI have thought about trying whipped cream flavored vodka but haven't ventured out to try anything but chocolate. :)
I use any leftover chocolate vodka for chocolate martinis! :)
hmmm...interested to know how many strawberries are used for this recipe and the amount of vodka used to soak the berries. One comment said they tasted too strong!!! I would like to try this with the right amounts...thanks!
ReplyDeleteI used an entire basket of strawberries (normal size from the grocery store). You can use however many strawberries fit into your container. I poured enough vodka so that all the strawberries were covered in it. I have noticed that if you soak them for less than 24 hours then they taste too strong and if you soak them for OVER 24 hours then they taste too strong and the berries get too mushy. The key is 24 hours. I do not consider myself someone that likes strong drinks either. I hope you enjoy them as much as my friends and I do! :)
DeleteOh Yummy!! These will go perfect with my Velata! (Chocolate fondue by Scentsy)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe!!

I just made TWO batches. One soaked in chocolate whipped vodka (Pinnacle brand)... the other in SUGAR COOKIE vodka (Burnett's). BOTH are absolutely delicious. For waaayyy less mess & time you can always use magic shell instead of melting chocolate. It does crack when you bite into them, so it's better if you use smaller, more bite sized strawberries with the magic shell. It's a huge help when they're for a large, drunken crowd.
ReplyDeleteMy friends would love this! I've got to try it :)
ReplyDeleteDid any one else have an issue with the berries turning mushy (they looked like thawed frozen strawberries)? I soaked them for only 20 hours, I was afraid of having mush after 24.
ReplyDeleteThis idea is just genius. I found this picture on pinterest, this idea has to come true next weekend, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWhile they are soaking, do you need to refrigerate them or leave them on the counter to keep room temperature?
ReplyDeleteI definitely refrigerate them! They are easier to work with when dipping in chocolate. Enjoy! :)
DeleteI have just put a large batch of vodka strawberries in the fridge and I am so so SO excited for this on New Years Eve!!
ReplyDeleteWe made quite a lot of these last night and did not eat them all, are these ok to freeze? I also agree that they are a bit strong. LOVED them though!!
ReplyDeleteI have never froze them before so I'm really not sure. If you try it, please come back and let me know how they turned out. :) I'm so glad you enjoyed them!
DeleteMade these a few days ago for NYE and they were a HIT! Can't wait to explore your blog a bit more!
ReplyDeleteI just bought some chocolate whipped cream vodka, and I cannot wait to make these for valentines days! I am so excited :)
ReplyDeleteAfter reading the comments I am slightly afraid of mushy strawberries, so hopefully everything works out well!
I am also wondering about the mush factor...if you marinate for 24 hours then take them out and fridge em overnight for a party...do they get mushy?
ReplyDeleteI have found they get mushy if I don't refrigerate them. Keep them cold, that's the trick. You could always keep them marinating in the fridge. Just make sure to dry them off before dipping in chocolate. :)
DeleteI haven't been able to find the baker's dipping chocolate....
ReplyDeleteI usually find it by the chocolate chips. It can also be called Chocolate Bark. It looks like big bars of chocolate. I have also found it by the cake mixes and frosting before. You can also use melted chocolate chips but I find the bars are much easier.
DeleteWonder if I could soak cherries in the choc whipped vodka and it would taste kinda like choc covered cherries ?? I wanted to do this for christmas gifts I use to do moonshine cherries but I thought this would be different but will it be good ??
ReplyDeleteWhat brand of Vodka did you use ?
ReplyDeleteI'm in Toronto and the only one I can find is "360 Double Chocolate Vodka"
