Ingredients
- 20 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 1 cup Vegan dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the strawberries thoroughly under cool running water, then gently pat them dry with paper towels. Ensure they are completely dry to help the chocolate adhere properly.
Step 2
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
Step 3
In a small heatproof bowl, combine the vegan dark chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Step 4
Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water, creating a double boiler setup.
Step 5
Stir the chocolate and coconut oil mixture constantly until it is fully melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl by microwaving it in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
Step 6
Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted chocolate, twirling to coat all sides evenly. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
Step 7
Place each chocolate-covered strawberry onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all strawberries are coated.
Step 8
Optional: If desired, you can garnish the chocolate-coated strawberries with toppings like finely chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or a drizzle of another melted vegan chocolate variety for extra flair.
Step 9
Allow the chocolate-covered strawberries to set at room temperature, or place them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to speed up the process.
Step 10
Once the chocolate is fully set, serve the vegan chocolate-covered strawberries immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
