MOLINE, Ill. — Mother's Day is Sunday, May 8. What do you do if you forgot or don't have a ton of extra cash to spend on a gift? Our Good Morning Quad Cities team has a way you can celebrate mom or a mother figure for less than $10: chocolate-covered fruit.
Ingredients:
- Fruit of your choice (We used strawberries and grapes).
Chocolate baking chips. - Sprinkles or other edible decorations.
Grab a microwavable-safe dish and pour in your chocolate chips of choice. Microwave for a minute and a half. Stir, and put back for more time if not fully melted. Note: You shouldn't need more than two and a half minutes for two cups of chocolate chips.
Dunk your fruit in the chocolate or drizzle using a spoon. Be careful. The chocolate may be hot. Place the chocolate-coated fruit on a beautiful plate and decorate if you choose. Let them chill, and then mom can enjoy them!
We won't tell her if you try one.
