Method
Preparation of Strawberries
Wash and Dry the Strawberries
Rinse the fresh strawberries under cold water and gently pat them dry with a paper towel. Ensure they are completely dry to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
Melting the Chocolate
Melt Chocolate Chips and Coconut Oil
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
Dipping the Strawberries
Dip Strawberries in Chocolate
Hold each strawberry by the green stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, covering about two-thirds of the strawberry. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
Add Toppings
If desired, immediately sprinkle the chopped nuts, sprinkles, or cocoa powder over the chocolate-covered part of the strawberry before the chocolate sets.
Setting the Chocolate
Place on Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the dipped strawberries on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don’t touch each other.
Let Chocolate Set
Refrigerate the strawberries for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
