Chocolate covered strawberries give a BIG wow-factor, taste insanely delicious, and are so simple to make!
Show your sweetie some love with Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberries!
What You’ll Need:
- 1 pkg. Chocolate Chips {semi-sweet or dark}
- 1 pkg. White Baking Chips {if making a smaller batch, just use 1/2 of the package}
- Big, Juicy Strawberries {yum!}
- Wax Paper
- Squeeze Bottle {optional}
What You’ll Do:
First, place a sheet of wax paper on your cookie sheet.
Then… wash your strawberries, and dry completely. {it’s very important they are dry when you go to dip them}
You can melt chocolate in your double boiler or by simmering on your stove, but my favorite method is… in the microwave! {easy!}
Start by microwaving dark chocolate chips for 30 seconds {in microwave safe bowl}, then stir. Then… continue to microwave in 10 second increments, stirring each time just until they’re melted and smooth. {be careful not to overdo it} I usually wait until just a few pieces are left in chocolate chip form, and stir until smooth.
Hold strawberry by the stem, and carefully dip in melted dark or semi-sweet chocolate. As you lift the strawberry up from the chocolate, twist and twirl to let the excess chocolate drip off, then carefully place on the wax paper-lined cookie sheet.
After all strawberries have been dipped and placed on the cookie sheet, melt the white chocolate chips {just like we melted the chocolate earlier}.
Once it’s creamy and smooth, drizzle over strawberries using a squeeze bottle with a narrow spout, or you could also use a fork dipped in and drizzled over.
Place in refrigerator, and let the chocolate set as it cools. {approx. 30 minutes}
ENJOY!!
