Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries washed and thoroughly dried
  • 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 2 ounces white chocolate chips optional
  • Colorful sprinkles optional
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Ensure strawberries are completely dry before dipping.
  3. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval.
  4. Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip into the melted chocolate, rotating to coat evenly.
  5. Allow excess chocolate to drip off, then place the strawberry onto the parchment paper.
  6. If using white chocolate, melt it and drizzle over the dipped strawberries.
  7. Add sprinkles while the chocolate is still slightly warm, if desired.
  8. Let the strawberries set at room temperature or refrigerate briefly until chocolate is firm.

Notes

Strawberries must be completely dry before dipping to ensure the chocolate adheres smoothly and sets with a glossy finish.
