Ingredients
- 20 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup White chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil or vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water and gently pat them dry with a paper towel. Ensure they are completely dry, as moisture can cause the chocolate to seize.
Step 2
Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 3
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
Step 4
Hold a strawberry by its green stem or leaves and dip it into the melted chocolate, twisting slightly to coat it evenly.
Step 5
Lift the strawberry out of the chocolate, letting any excess drip back into the bowl, then place it onto the prepared parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
Step 6
If using white chocolate as a drizzle, melt the white chocolate chips in a separate microwave-safe bowl using the same method as the semi-sweet chocolate.
Step 7
Use a small spoon or a piping bag with a tiny tip to drizzle white chocolate over the dipped strawberries for a decorative finish.
Step 8
Let the strawberries sit at room temperature or refrigerate them for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate sets completely.
Step 9
Serve the chocolate-dipped strawberries immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
