Ingredients
- 5 ounces semisweet chocolate broken into smaller blocks or chopped
- 5 ounces milk chocolate broken into smaller blocks or chopped
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- 2 pounds strawberries with stems, about 20 strawberries
Instructions
- Line a sheet pan with parchment or wax paper. Set aside.
- Wash strawberries and thoroughly pat dry with paper towel. (The chocolate will not stick if the strawberries are not dried well).
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted.
- Pierce the stem-end of a strawberry with a fork and dip strawberry into the melted chocolate. Lift strawberry just above the bowl and twist around a couple of times to let excess chocolate drip off. Place strawberry on lined pan and repeat with remaining strawberries.
- Chill until the chocolate sets, about 15-30 minutes.
- To drizzle strawberry with extra chocolate for effect: Melt remaining leftover chocolate, if needed. Dip the tip of a fork into the chocolate and drizzle in a zig-zag pattern over the dipped strawberries. Let set in the refrigerator for a further 30 minutes, or until set.
Notes
- For additional ideas to coat strawberries, dip strawberries into melted chocolate as above, then dip into crushed nuts, mini chocolate chips, chocolate flakes or coconut flakes.
- FOR ADULT CHOCOLATE DIPPED STRAWBERRIES:
- Place strawberries in a large bowl. Pour alcohol of choice (champagne, vodka, Kahlua, brandy, etc) into bowl to completely cover strawberries.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 6 hours.
- Drain strawberries in a colander, reserving alcohol for future use. Thoroughly pat dry strawberries with paper towel.
- Melt chocolate as directed above and continue with recipe.
