Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries about 12 large strawberries with stems
  • 8 ounces dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil optional, for smoother coating

Method
 

  1. Wash strawberries and pat completely dry with paper towels. Make sure they are completely dry or the chocolate won't stick properly. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until completely melted and smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes total.
  3. Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip into the melted chocolate, tilting the bowl to coat about three-quarters of the strawberry. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
  4. Place each dipped strawberry on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
  5. Refrigerate the strawberries for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate is completely set and firm to the touch.
  6. Remove from refrigerator and serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for best quality.

Notes

Make sure strawberries are completely dry before dipping to ensure the chocolate adheres properly. Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and smooth texture. For best results, serve the same day as chocolate can develop condensation if stored too long. You can drizzle white chocolate on top for an elegant presentation.
