Easy Chocolate-Covered Blueberries

 

Equipment Needed:

 

• • Airtight container

• • Wilton Chocolate Melter (HERE) or double boiler

• • Baking sheet - MY FAVORITE - (HERE)

• • Parchment paper or wax paper

• • 1 cup measuring cup

• • 1 tsp. measuring spoon

• Spoon or Drizzle Scoop - I LOVE THIS FOR CANDY AND COOKIE DECORATING

 

Ingredients Needed:

 

• • Fresh blueberries or dried blueberries

• • Dewey’s lemon and Dewey’s French vanilla wafers – these can be found at Walmart, Amazon, or the grocery store.e

• • Dark chocolate chips or dark chocolate bars – Ghirardelli - (HERE)

• • White chocolate bars or white chips – Ghirardelli (HERE)  

• • Coconut oil, sunflower oil, or vegetable oil

Step 1: Washing and Drying Blueberries a Must for This Delicious Treat

 

After washing the blueberries, make sure they are completely dry. It’s important; one drop of water will cause the chocolate to seize and become a mess. While the blueberries are drying. Place the Dewey’s wafers in lemon and French vanilla on a parchment paper or wax paper-lined baking sheet.

Step 2: Blueberry Coating With Rich Chocolate Goodness

 

To make my rich chocolate blueberry coating, I added ½ cup of dark chocolate chips right to my Wilton Candy Melt, no oil needed. Adding oil makes the chocolate too runny. I used 72% rich dark chocolate “chips”, and they’ve got a good amount of cocoa butter, so they melt smoothly and are creamy. 

Cindy’s Wilton Candy Melt Note: I can’t recommend this candy melt enough. (No, I don’t get compensated.) Any type of chocolate melts perfectly every time! You can use chocolate bars instead of chips. Chop the chocolate bars into small pieces before melting.

Step 3: A Delicious Treat with Melted Chocolate and Dry Blueberries

  I used my Wilton drizzle scoop to add a nice coating of chocolate to each wafer. You can use the tip of a teaspoon, but honestly, I can’t recommend this drizzle scoop enough. (HERE) Then I added five clean and dried fresh blueberries, stacking them like a little pyramid, four on the bottom, one on top. The cookies act like a mini plate for blueberries, which I love. Then, drizzle dark and white melted chocolate over the top and let them set. So easy, so good! Cindy’s Note: The lemon wafers are the perfect and delicious contrast with blueberries coated in a sweet white drizzle. The French vanilla adds just the right sweetness to pair with the rich chocolate.

Step 4: Snack Storage: White & Dark Chocolate Blueberries In an Airtight Container

 

• • Fresh berries, like white and dark covered blueberries, are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1–2 days.

• • Dried blueberries? These hold up great!  Store them in an airtight container, and they’ll last for about a week at room temperature.
