What’s the opposite of chocolate dipped strawberries? Chocolate filled strawberries.
So after a successful experience with hollowed out strawberries filled with Sambuca and topped off with whipped cream, I started to think about the endless possibilities my friends and I could do with using these strawberries at edible shot glasses. It started off with Sambuca – who knew!? Just about everyone loves chocolate dipped fruit, so I decided to find a chocolate liqueor to go alongside the weekend’s agenda.
I found Adult Chocolate Milk, produced by Adult Beverage Co. which is based out of Newport Beach, CA.
And, instead of regular whipped cream I used CREAM’s alcohol-infused chocolate whipped cream, produced by Kingfish Spirits based out of Shaker Heights, OH.
So like ths Sambuca strawberry shots, I started out by hollowing out strawberries. My suggestion is to use a sharp small knife, the longer the knife the harder it is to maneuver around the edge of the strawberry. (But, please be careful!)
Once you have the amount of strawberries you need, fill them with Adult Chocolate Milk, then top them off with CREAM’s alcohol infused chocolate whipped cream.
Another suggestion, have who ever is taking the shot stand over a sink when pouring. The strawberry doesn’t hold THAT much alcohol depending on its size and it’s very easy to overpour — as you can see from the Adult Chocolate Milk dripping a little from the above picture.
All-in-all, these edible shots may be a little more work than most shots, but they are definitely a party pleaser. Everyone LOVED them!
And with strawberries, there are definitely endless possibilities as to what you can fill them with.
What would you suggest?
These were sooo good, definitely a highlight of the weekend! They are fantastic for the summer…. or really any season!
