These Chocolate Covered Cinnamon Bears are just like those you find at the high end candy stores at a fraction of the cost. Just one bite and you will be in LOVE! My daughter is a big fan of a specialty online candy shop that sells chocolate covered cinnamon bears. I was going to purchase her an overpriced 1 lb bag but the cost was outside my Valentine budget for each of my kiddos. I set out to make her some homemade chocolate cinnamon bears for a Valentine Gift. I knew it would be super simple and save a bundle.

The cinnamon bears have a soft center so combining them with chocolate is just perfect! I did slightly chill our bears before dipping so the chocolate would bind quicker. I LOVE that trick!

After dipping all of our little bears I tossed them into two small glass jars I had picked up at Target for around $1 each. Wrapped a bit of ribbon and Voila I had two perfect Valentine gifts for my princess.
