Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh strawberries
- 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- Toppings of your choice (e.g., white chocolate, chopped nuts, sprinkles, sea salt)
Instructions
- Prep Your Station: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the Chocolate: Combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- The Big Dip: Hold a strawberry by its stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, swirling to coat it about three-quarters of the way up. Let any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl.
- Add Some Flair: If using toppings, immediately sprinkle them on the wet chocolate before it sets.
- Set to Perfection: Carefully place the dipped strawberry on the parchment-lined tray. Repeat with the remaining berries.
- Chill Out: Transfer the entire tray to the refrigerator for at least 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely firm.
