Dessert “chips and salsa” are the new TikTok food craze right now.
The unique food combination is made simply by scooping chopped strawberries onto triangle slices of chocolate, imitating the action of gathering salsa onto a chip.
To make the “chips,” melt almond bark or chocolate chips and spread onto a sheet pan before freezing and cutting into chip-like pieces. Simply chop a container’s worth of strawberries into salsa-like pieces to cultivate the sweet “dip.”
The easy trade-in of strawberries for salsa and chocolate for chips has sent users scrambling to try it out, as multiple TikTokers have taken to posting about their pleasant experiences with the sweet twist on the traditional snack.
In one TikTok posted by a user focused on Midwest lifestyle content, a screen of text reads “‘Chips and salsa’ taken to a whole new level. If I never learn anything else from TikTok after this I won’t be mad.”
Behind the text, the user is seen scooping a piece of the chocolate into a bowl of cut up strawberries.
Tostitos, a popular chip brand commonly used in the ‘traditional’ chips and salsa combination, joined in on the fun by commenting “I’m upset 🙁.”
In contrast, Nestle Toll House, known for their chocolate chips, dropped the comment “time to shine🥰.”
Other users are using the trend as an on-theme Valentine’s Day sweet, sharing their dessert salsa snacks set up amongst V-Day spreads and placed over a TikTok sound that says, “This is my meal, I call it girl dinner.”
