Delightfully simple and romantic, these Valentine’s Day Chocolate Covered Strawberries combine fresh, juicy strawberries with rich, smooth chocolate for an irresistible treat. Perfect for celebrations or a sweet snack, they’re easy to make and customizable with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Scale

Strawberries

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, cleaned and dried

Chocolate Coating

  • 1/2 cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)

Decoration

  • 1 cup sprinkles (optional, for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberries: Rinse the strawberries gently under cool water and pat them dry thoroughly with a paper towel to ensure the chocolate adheres well.
  2. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring well after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  3. Dip Strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, turning to coat evenly. Let any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl.
  4. Decorate: Place the chocolate-coated strawberries onto parchment paper. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings like sprinkles before the chocolate hardens.
  5. Chill: Transfer the strawberries to the refrigerator and chill for about 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to firm up, making them easier to handle and enjoy.

Notes

  • Best served fresh to enjoy optimal flavor and texture.
  • Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; consume within this time for best quality.
  • Use good quality chocolate for best taste and smooth coating.
  • Ensure strawberries are completely dry to prevent chocolate from seizing.
