Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh strawberries (room temperature, washed and dried)
- 150 grams solid chocolate bar (of choice, not chocolate chips)
Steps
-
Wash strawberries well and allow them to dry completely.
-
Place 1" of water in a small pot.
-
Break chocolate into pieces and place in a glass bowl that fits over the top of the pot without touching the water.
-
Bring the water to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce to low and place bowl with chocolate over top. Stir frequently until melted and smooth and the chocolate reaches 88-90°F.
-
Remove from heat (I like to keep the bowl over the pot to keep the chocolate warm) and carefully dip strawberries, holding the stem. Gently shake off excess chocolate and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Garnish with toppings if using.
-
When all strawberries are coated, place in the refrigerator to set completely before serving.
