Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

All You Need:
  • Fresh ripe strawberries
  • Chocolate chips
  • Little Butter

The Recipe:
  • Wash the strawberries and dry them on paper towels and let them dry for 1-2 hrs. Make sure there's no water left so that the chocolate sticks well
  • Prick a toothpick on top of the strawberries and keep aside
  • You can melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in a microwave
  • For melting on the stove: Place a sauce pan filled half with water and heat under medium heat. Let a glass mixing bowl sit on the sauce pan and add butter. Once the butter melts,add chocolate chips and keep stirring continuously until melted and smooth
  • For melting in MW : Place the chocolate chips in MW safe bowl and heat them in an interval of 30 seconds. Keep stirring until all melted and smooth.
  • Dip the strawberries in chocolate and place them on parchment paper
  • For fancier strawberries,dip the chocolate strawberries in chopped walnuts/almonds,sprinkles,chopped chocolate. You can even drizzle some melted white chocolate for that gourmet touch.
