Description

Indulge in these elegant and delicious Chocolate Covered Strawberries, perfect for any occasion from Valentine’s Day to a simple, no-bake dessert. Fresh strawberries are dipped in smooth melted semi-sweet chocolate, optionally drizzled with white or dark chocolate for an extra touch of sophistication. This quick and easy recipe requires minimal prep and no cooking, making it an ideal treat for chocolate and fruit lovers alike.

Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 1 lb fresh strawberries, rinsed and thoroughly dried

Chocolate Coating

  • 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter (optional, for smoother chocolate)

Optional Drizzle

  • 2 oz white chocolate or dark chocolate (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the strawberries from sticking once dipped.
  2. Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
  3. Dip the strawberries: Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted chocolate, swirling gently to coat about three-quarters of the berry. Let any excess chocolate drip off.
  4. Place on baking sheet: Set the dipped strawberry carefully onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with all strawberries.
  5. Optional drizzle: If desired, melt white or dark chocolate and drizzle over the dipped strawberries using a spoon or piping bag for decorative contrast.
  6. Set the chocolate: Allow the dipped strawberries to set at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, or speed up the process by refrigerating for 15 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
  7. Serve or store: Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Ensure strawberries are completely dry before dipping to help the chocolate adhere properly.
  • For extra flair, roll the dipped strawberries in chopped nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut before the chocolate sets.
  • Use room temperature strawberries for best chocolate coating results.
  • Store strawberries in a single layer in the fridge to prevent melting or sticking.
