Ingredients
- 16 pieces fresh strawberries
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with paper towels. Make sure they are completely dry to ensure the chocolate adheres properly.
Step 2
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
Step 3
Place the semisweet chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and completely melted.
Step 4
Allow the chocolate to cool slightly but keeping it liquid enough for dipping.
Step 5
Hold a strawberry by the green leafy top, dip it into the melted chocolate, swirling to cover it completely or up to the halfway point, depending on preference.
Step 6
Let any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl and place the strawberry on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
Step 7
For an optional decorative touch, melt the white chocolate chips using the same microwave method. Once melted, drizzle it over the chocolate-covered strawberries using a spoon or a piping bag.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely set.
Step 9
Once set, arrange the chocolate covered strawberries on a platter for serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
