Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries Ripe and preferably large strawberries for best presentation.
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Use high-quality chocolate for best flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil Helps chocolate to smooth out and set well.
  • Sprinkles Optional, for added decoration.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Rinse the strawberries gently under cool water and pat dry with a cloth or paper towel.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil.
  3. Melt the chocolate mixture in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Dipping
  1. Take each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is well-coated.
  2. Allow excess chocolate to drip off and place dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined baking tray.
  3. If desired, quickly add sprinkles over the chocolate before it sets.
Setting
  1. Refrigerate the tray of strawberries for about 15-30 minutes or until the chocolate is hardened.

Notes

Consider using dark, white, or mixed chocolates. You can enhance flavor by adding extracts or infusing citrus zest. Store in an airtight container lined with parchment paper for up to 1-2 days.
