Ingredients
1/2 cup white chocolate
1 tablespoon unrefined coconut oil
12 strawberries
Instructions
-
Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly. Ensure they are completely dry to avoid interfering with the chocolate coating. Leave the green stems on for easy handling.
-
Melt the White Chocolate: Combine the white chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. Be careful not to overheat the chocolate.
-
Dip the Strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the white chocolate, covering about two-thirds of the strawberry. Gently shake off any excess chocolate and place the dipped strawberry on a parchment-lined tray or plate.
-
Set the Chocolate: Let the strawberries sit at room temperature for 10 minutes or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to speed up the setting process.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate is set, serve the strawberries immediately or store them in the fridge until ready to enjoy.
Notes
For extra flair, sprinkle your dipped strawberries with crushed nuts, sprinkles, or shredded coconut before the chocolate sets.
You can use dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate if preferred, but the taste will vary.
To prevent the chocolate from hardening too quickly, reheat gently if needed.
