Chocolate Covered Vanilla Creme Drops Recipe
Description
Chocolate covered vanilla creme drops are a sweet and decadent treat that can be enjoyed anytime. They are made by dipping small pieces of vanilla creme into melted chocolate and then rolling them in chopped nuts, sprinkles or other decorations. These delicious treats are perfect for parties, gifting or just enjoying as a special treat. The combination of the sweetness of the creamy vanilla and the rich chocolate is simply heavenly.
Ingredients
For this recipe you will need the following ingredients: 2 cups of creamy vanilla creme, 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (optional), 1/4 cup of sprinkles (optional), and a double boiler.
Instructions
The first step to making these delicious treats is to prepare the double boiler. Fill one pot with water and place the other pot on top so that it is partially submerged. Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Place the chocolate chips in the top pot and stir continuously until the chips are completely melted.
Next, take the vanilla creme and use a tablespoon to scoop out small pieces. Dip each piece into the melted chocolate, using a fork or spoon to ensure that it is completely covered. Once all of the creme drops have been dipped, roll them in the chopped nuts or sprinkles. Place on a wax paper lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the chocolate to set.
Once the chocolate has set, the vanilla creme drops are ready to enjoy. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

For a festive touch, try adding colored sprinkles or edible glitter to the melted chocolate.
