Sean’s Sherry Berries are large, tasteless California berries and should be ignored. We in America have a two week window for decent strawberries - much like England - and that is in June, not February. Our finest strawberries are tiny, ripe and oozing deliciousness.

So let’s concentrate on...chocolate! I’m thinking of my Valentine’s Day recipe...

I dunno; any excuse for putting chocolate around something works for me. I've made those dipped strawberries, but couldn't figure out how to prop them up to dry, so that the berries are nicely coated and not sitting in a pool of hardened choc and looking all jagged and terrible.

A few years ago I bought a bunch of heart cookie cutters from King Arthur; can't find the beautiful pic now, but it's all in the decoration:

I've always used my Aunt's recipe for Iced Honey Cookies, which she made every Christmas:

So let’s concentrate on...chocolate! YES!!!!

Make the Jello cooked pudding recipe , not instant. Add a bag of Giardelliee dark chocolate to Original Chocolate Jello cooked pudding recipe when it's warm. Best food ever! Add a bit of Whip Cream!
