Strawberries dipped in chocolate is a classic that makes everyone smile. The sweet berry and creamy chocolate are the perfect combo for any occasion. Make sure to make enough because you are sure to run out fast - good thing they're easy to make.

3. Rice Krispie Treats

The sticky, gooey Rice Krispie treat is perfect if you want something decadent and sweet to eat. Take this childhood favorite to the next level and dunk it in your fave chocolate come December 16 (or any day, to be honest).

4. Apples

Move over caramel apples, there's a new treat in town. Chocolate covered apples are tangy and sweet — plus, you can do some portion control and cut them into slices if you don't want to eat the whole apple (but who wouldn't want to eat the whole thing?)

5. Pineapple

Pineapple and chocolate are two unlikely peas in a pod. The juicy pineapple dipped in sweet milk chocolate will make you feel better about eating dessert. 

6. Bacon

This food combo might seem like an unlikely pair, but you would be surprised how the sweet and salty flavors melt in your mouth. Besides, bacon's proved to be a delicious contender in the sweet and salty recipe game.
