Today, December 16th, is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day.

You can cover anything with chocolate, although you should first ask whether you would want to. Some things may not work that well when covered in chocolate. Then again, they might.

Fruit, such as strawberries and cherries, are commonly covered with chocolate. Together with marshmallows they can be added to a skewer and covered in chocolate from a chocolate fondue.

Pretzels are also quite commonly covered in chocolate, as are coffee beans.

You can quickly get more exotic though. Chocolate covered bacon. Chocolate covered ants. And so on.

If you aren't feeling experimental or daring, just stick with something simple.
