Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 1 lb fresh strawberries, washed and dried completely

Chocolate Coating

  • 8 oz pink melting chocolate (or white chocolate with pink food coloring)
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for a smoother coating)

Decorations

  • Sprinkles or edible glitter
  • Crushed nuts (almonds, pistachios, or hazelnuts)
  • White or dark chocolate for drizzle


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly and dry them completely with a paper towel to ensure no moisture affects the chocolate coating.
  2. Air Dry: Let the strawberries air dry for 10-15 minutes to make sure they are completely dry, which helps the chocolate adhere better.
  3. Melt the Chocolate: Place the pink melting chocolate or white chocolate colored pink into a microwave-safe bowl.
  4. Heat Chocolate: Microwave the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
  5. Optional Smoothness: Stir in 1 teaspoon of coconut oil for a silkier texture and better coating consistency.
  6. Dip Strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted pink chocolate, swirling to coat evenly.
  7. Drain Excess Chocolate: Allow the excess chocolate to drip off, then place coated strawberries onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Decorate: While chocolate is still wet, sprinkle with your choice of sprinkles, edible glitter, or crushed nuts.
  9. Chocolate Drizzle: Drizzle melted white or dark chocolate over the coated strawberries for an elegant finish.
  10. Set the Chocolate: Let the strawberries sit at room temperature for 10 minutes or refrigerate them for 15 minutes until the chocolate is fully set and firm.

Notes

  • Ensure strawberries are completely dry before dipping to prevent chocolate from seizing or slipping off.
  • Use good quality melting chocolate for best texture and flavor.
  • Coconut oil is optional but helps achieve a smooth and glossy finish.
  • Customize decoration with your favorite toppings like shredded coconut or crushed candy.
  • Store finished strawberries in a cool place or refrigerated to keep chocolate intact.
  • This recipe works well for gifting or party platters and can be easily doubled or tripled.
