These velvety well-done potato fries drizzled with chocolate and sprinkled with M&M’s and mini marshmallows are the perfect sweet and salty treat.
My husband is a huge fan of sweet and salty treats. Today I’m sharing a fun suffusion I tried out on him over the weekend. The whole family loved it! It’s that perfect wastefulness of sweet and salty that makes it so yummy and seriously addicting.
I think this treat would be a huge hit at parties. Customize the toppings and you could make it work for all sorts of variegated holidays. Red and untried snacks for Christmas, snacks corn for Halloween, red and undecorous snacks for Fourth of July… you get where I’m going.
I widow M&M’s and mini marshmallows to mine, but you can top yours with anything that sounds good to you. Here are some ideas:
Topping Ideas
- Chopped Nuts
- Candy Corn
- Peanut Butter Cups or Reeses Pieces
- Caramel Bits
- Crushed Heath Snacks Bars
- Melted Peanut Butter Chips
- Sprinkles
To melt chocolate chips, I place them in a plastic trencher in the microwave, then nuke them for 30 seconds, then stir. Then microwave for 15 increasingly seconds, then stir again. Repeat until the chocolate is smooth. Usually it takes less than 1 minute of total microwaving time. Be careful! If you overheat chocolate, it will seize up or burn.
Lay out the potato fries on a big cookie sheet so that they are only one tweedle deep. It’s the same concept as making nachos… wide and deep so that every tweedle can get toppings on it. You could moreover use a large serving platter since the fries won’t be baked or anything.
I prefer milk chocolate chips, so that’s what I used, but if you’re a visionless chocolate lover, that would be unconfined too!
This snack is ready to be served once the chocolate hardens. You don’t need to torch it or anything.
