If you like chocolate covered chocolate, Aldi's Specially Selected Belgian Coco Dusted Truffles are delicious. They are only sold around Christmas. I just let them dissolve in my mouth. Luckily the dog is always following me around, so I can't eat a whole box at one sitting because he "speaks" for a truffle for himself.

My wife went to the grocery store this morning, and knowing my "addition" to chocolate, she bought me a dozen freshly made chocolate covered doughnuts. I Will enjoy them over the next few days.

From the first time I had them at a movie, Raisinets.
Raisins covered in Chocolate...how simple, but still one of those things in life that just works.
My comfort food enjoyed in the dark and you knew by the 'rattle', how many were left in the box!

Saturday Matinees would never be the same.

I confess to being a chocolate addict. Have to have a few, I do mean a few, bits of Hershey minis, or nuggets, or kisses, every night after dinner.

What are ‘kisses’ Geezerette ? Not heard of them in my part of the world

Hershey “kisses” are a little shape that is round on the bottom and brought up to a point, wrapped usually in silver foil most of the year, with and green at Christmas,with a little strip at the point to help unwrap the foil.

I ate some plain M&Ms today. Can't go wrong with chocolate covered chocolate.

The original is milk chocolate, but they make a variety of different kinds of chocolate, now. Including specialty chocolate for holidays.

They look lovely do any of them have a filling ? Nuts or caramel for, instance ?

One of our cousins sent this to my son as a condolence gift. He told me to take what I wanted so I took 4 strawberries, some of the grapes (which were so good) and one dove. I was surprised when I bit into the dove and found there is pineapple inside. I thought it was cake.

Oh, my....so many varieties! Here are just a few....
milk chocolate,caramel-filled, Special Dark (my favorite), hazelnut, and white chocolate swirls that are called "Hugs".

Then there are the holiday editions. Around Valentine's Day they have Cherry kisses. Halloween has pumpkin kisses. And at Christmas there are peppermint kisses. All of them are made with milk chocolate.

They also change the color of the wrappers for each holiday. Each Kiss is just the right size for one bite of chocolate.

Hershey Kisses are popular here in the US. Besides the convince of not having to open a full sized candy bar, they are popular for other reasons, too. Businesses sometime put out a bowl of them for their customers, or a bowl might be put out at a party, etc.

Ok...now I'm hungry!
