Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to do Chocolate Covered Strawberries for your Sweetie! Anyone can do these, they’re quick and easy and they won’t completely kill your New Years resolution to eat better!
I use Ghirardelli Milk Chocolate chips…just melt some chocolate and dip the (completely dry) strawberries. Let the excess chocolate drip back into bowl…
then put strawberries on parchment paper to dry. Drizzle some melted candy coating over the berries if you want!
These babies are kinda romantic aren’t they?
Heavenly nibbling Friends…

My favorites! The key is DRY strawberries like you said. I also saw on the Littlest Chocolatiers the idea of dipping peppers in chocolate. They put a sweet/spicy cream on the inside of them and then dipped them in chocolate. I’m trying it this year. Just a few because I can’t get my head around whether they would taste great or not.

OOO, I want to take a bite out of my screen! Going to the grocery today, will get strawberries and CHOCOLATE!!!! MMMMNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!
Tip of the day ~* To keep strawberries crisp, fresh and “snappy”, place
folded paper towell in zip loc bag with the berries ~
and strawberries are on sale right now at kroger–yes! just wondering how many strawberries you were able to dip from the 2 pkgs. of chips.

Jenn…this did a lot! I want to say 30 but honestly I’m not sure. I was eating some as they dried which would mess up the count!!!
Robin, YOur strawberries are the essence of Valentine’s Day to me! Very beautiful, red and so delicious. I like the white chocolate embellishement! Classy and sassy all at once.
