Steps:
- Put the semisweet and white chocolates into 2 separate heatproof medium bowls. Fill 2 medium saucepans with a couple inches of water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Turn off the heat; set the bowls of chocolate over the water to melt. Stir until smooth. (Alternatively, melt the chocolates in a microwave at half power, for 1 minute, stir and then heat for another minute or until melted.)
- Once the chocolates are melted and smooth, remove from the heat. Line a sheet pan with parchment or waxed paper. Holding the strawberry by the stem, dip the fruit into the dark chocolate, lift and twist slightly, letting any excess chocolate fall back into the bowl. Set strawberries on the parchment paper. Repeat with the rest of the strawberries. Dip a fork in the white chocolate and drizzle the white chocolate over the dipped strawberries.
- Set the strawberries aside until the chocolate sets, about 30 minutes.

CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES
This is the simplest version of chocolate covered strawberries I know. Paraffin was originally used instead of shortening. Turn the strawberries upside down and insert by the toothpicks into a piece of styrofoam for easy cooling, or simply place them on a sheet of wax paper. White chocolate may be drizzled over the milk chocolate for a fancier look. They are perfect for weddings when decorated with frosting bow ties, bells, butterflies, roses, etc.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the strawberries and champagne. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 12-36 hours. The longer the strawberries soak, the more prominent the champagne flavor will be.
- Remove the strawberries from the champagne and dry well with a paper towel. Reserve the champagne.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Fill a small saucepan with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Set a medium heatproof bowl over the pot, making sure the water is not touching the bottom, and add the white chocolate. Melt, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Stir in the canola oil until well combined. Transfer the melted chocolate to a mug or measuring cup.
- Hold the top of each strawberry and dip into the melted white chocolate, coating almost completely. Lift out and shake off any excess chocolate, then place on the prepared baking sheet. If the chocolate is still very thin and runny, wait until it cools slightly and coats the strawberry without creating a puddle of chocolate on the pan beneath the strawberry.
- While the chocolate is still melted, decorate each strawberry with gold luster dust and gold sprinkles.
- Transfer to the refrigerator to set for 30 minutes, up to overnight.
- Just before serving, fill 12 mini culinary pipettes with the reserved champagne (or use fresh champagne, if desired). Insert a pipette into each strawberry.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Select ripe and flavorful strawberries, as they contribute to the overall taste of the dish.
- Rinse the strawberries gently to remove any dirt or debris, then pat them dry with a paper towel to prevent dilution of the chocolate and Amarula mixture.
- Use high-quality chocolate for the coating, as it will provide a rich and decadent flavor. Chop the chocolate finely or use a double boiler to melt it smoothly.
- To achieve a thin and even chocolate coating, hold the strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, gently swirling it to coat the entire surface.
- Place the chocolate-covered strawberries on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has set.
- For the Amarula drizzle, combine equal parts Amarula cream liqueur and melted chocolate. Drizzle the mixture over the chocolate-covered strawberries in a zigzag pattern.
- Sprinkle chopped nuts, grated chocolate, or edible gold dust on top of the strawberries for an elegant touch and added flavor.
- Serve the Amarula and chocolate-covered strawberries chilled, as the cold temperature helps to maintain the integrity of the chocolate coating.
