Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
Description
Chocolate Dipped Strawberries use fresh strawberries coated in melted chocolate that is prepared using a gentle steam melting technique to avoid burning. The strawberries are thoroughly washed and dried before dipping to ensure proper chocolate adherence. After dipping, excess chocolate is shaken off and the berries are placed on parchment-lined trays to set. Optional decorating steps include drizzling with other colored chocolates or sprinkling with nuts or sugar for texture and visual appeal.
Ingredients
- 4 lb strawberry fresh
- 2 cup chocolate melts sold at most craft stores
Instructions
- It's best to melt chocolate on the steam. To do this, set water in a pot to boil and place a bowl on top. Make sure the bowl is not plastic, to prevent melting. Mix the chocolate as it softens, until completely melted. Continue keeping your bowl on the pot to keep the chocolate fluid.
- Wash strawberries and fully wipe them, using a paper towel. Dip the strawberries into chocolate, shaking the excess chocolate off, and place it on tray lined with parchment or wax paper.
- You can decorate strawberries with different colors of chocolate, sprinkling them with nuts or colorful sugar.
