Ingredients
- 8–10 fresh strawberries
- 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips or chopped milk chocolate
- 2 tablespoons oil (coconut oil or vegetable oil)
Instructions
- Chop the milk chocolate into fine pieces.
- Fill a saucepan with water and bring to medium heat. Place a heatproof glass bowl on top, ensuring it doesn’t touch the water.
- Add chopped chocolate and oil to the bowl. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth.
- Hold a strawberry and either dip it or place it on a parchment-lined tray and pour melted chocolate over it until coated.
- Transfer coated strawberries to a tray lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until chocolate is set. Serve chilled.
Notes
- Always dry strawberries completely before dipping to help chocolate stick.
- Use dark, white, or ruby chocolate for variations.
- Top with sprinkles, shredded coconut, or crushed nuts for extra texture.
- Drizzle with contrasting melted chocolate for a decorative finish.
- Best enjoyed within 2–3 days—store in fridge in a single layer.
