4. Open bag and allow to cool slightly before serving.
5. Drizzle with additionally melted chocolate, if desired.

Crunchy Coconut Chicken

This recipe is SUPER yummy and SUPER simple. I served it with mushroom rice and corn, but I think it would be equally tasty on a salad.

1 c flaked coconut
13 vanilla wafers, crushed
2-3 chicken breasts slicked thinly (1"x5" - like you would see on a salad at a restuarant)
1 egg beaten
1/3 c butter, melted

On a plate, combine coconut and vanilla wafer crumbs. Dip chicken in egg, then coat with coconut mixture. Place in a shallow baking dish; drizzle with butter. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 min or until done. 4-6 servings.

Strawberries and Sour Cream

This sounds nasty, but wait til you try it. It's AWESOME. Serve as an appetizer or dessert.

-strawberries clean and cold
-small bowl of sour cream
-small bowl of brown sugar
-small bowl of powdered sugar

Take a strawberry, dip it in the sour cream and then dip it in either the brown or powdered sugar.

AWESOME!!! Yum yum yum!
