Dessert Charcuterie
We created a sweet, dessert Easter board with plenty of store-bought delights. We chose chocolate and yogurt covered pretzels, chocolate covered raisins — the brand Raisinets as well as a store version; the Raisinets were far tastier.Also, we added in chocolate marshmallow bunnies and cookies, mini pastry, candy eggs, a chocolate bunny and, of course, jelly beans. The strawberries add a pop of color and, dare we say, a smidge of healthy food to this dessert charcuterie.Keep in mind that we made this at Easter time. If we revisit the idea at Christmas or another time of the year, then we would change up the candies and sweets to reflect the season. Have fun creating your own dessert charcuterie board.
