Description

Juicy, sweet strawberries dipped in smooth chocolate for a simple, elegant treat perfect for parties, gifts, or indulgent evenings.


Ingredients

1 lb fresh strawberries (washed and dried thoroughly)

8 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)

Optional: 2 oz white chocolate (for drizzling)

Optional toppings: crushed nuts, sprinkles, shredded coconut


Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure strawberries are completely dry.
  2. Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler.
  3. Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, coating about three-quarters of the fruit. Let excess drip off.
  4. Place dipped strawberries on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Optional: Melt white chocolate and drizzle over strawberries. Add toppings like nuts or coconut while chocolate is still wet.
  6. Refrigerate strawberries for 20–30 minutes until chocolate sets.
  7. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Make sure strawberries are completely dry to ensure chocolate sticks properly.

Use high-quality chocolate for best results.

Decorate with themed toppings for special occasions.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days with a paper towel to absorb moisture.

Do not freeze, as thawing changes texture.
