Dark Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
I first had dark chocolate dipped strawberries when a friend sent them to my husband and I as an anniversary present. Chocolate and strawberries are such an incredible combination that come strawberry season each year, I like to recreate those first dipped strawberries that we enjoyed so much.
Equipment
- saucepan
- glass bowl
- sheet pan
- parchment paper
Ingredients
- 12 large ripe strawberries wash and dry completely before dipping
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate baking chips I like Lily's or Hu Kitchen (use code NEST to save 15%)
- 1 tsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Place the chocolate and coconut oil in the glass bowl over a pan of boiling water (a double boiler) on medium heat. Stir occasionally until chocolate is completely melted and coconut oil is incorporated.
- Lay a sheet of parchment paper on a sheet pan. Dip strawberries one at a time in the melted chocolate and place on the parchment paper.
- Once you have dipped all of your strawberries, place the sheet pan in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens.
- Enjoy! If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They won't last long if your strawberries are fresh so plan to enjoy them within a day of dipping.
