Method
Preparation
Wash the Strawberries
Rinse the fresh strawberries under cold water to remove any dirt or pesticides. Pat them dry with paper towels. Ensure that the strawberries are completely dry before dipping.
Prepare the Melting Pot
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. The coconut oil helps the chocolate to melt smoothly and gives it a nice sheen.
Melting Chocolate
Melt the Chocolate
Microwave the chocolate and coconut oil mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes total depending on your microwave.
Dipping
Dip the Strawberries
Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is coated up to the green leaves. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
Add Optional Toppings
If desired, immediately sprinkle chopped nuts, sprinkles, or cocoa powder onto the dipped chocolate while it's still wet. This will help the toppings stick.
Setting
Set the Strawberries
Place the dipped strawberries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Allow them to set at room temperature or refrigerate for about 30 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
