Categories     Dessert, Treat

Time 24m

Number Of Ingredients 3

100g dark chocolate , roughly chopped
400g strawberries
30g white and milk chocolate , roughy chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut a strip of baking parchment and leave to one side. To melt the dark chocolate, fill a small pan with 2cm water and bring to a simmer. Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and rest it on top of the pan, ensuring the bowl isn't touching the water. Stir the chocolate to gradually melt it. Or, melt the chocolate in 20 second blasts in the microwave, stirring after each blast until melted. Put the melted chocolate in a small deep bowl.
  • Gently hold the strawberries by the leafy top and dip into the chocolate. Tap off any excess chocolate and put on the parchment to set. If you have any leftover chocolate, pour it onto another strip of parchment and leave it to set, it can be used again.
  • If you'd like to decorate the strawberries, melt the white and milk chocolate and drizzle lightly over the fruit.

Yield 1 pound chocolate covered strawberries

6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
3 ounces white chocolate, chopped
1 pound strawberries with stems (about 20), washed and dried very well

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.)

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.

CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES



Chocolate Covered Strawberries image

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.

Time 35m

Yield Makes about 20

Number Of Ingredients 3

8 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 pound large strawberries (about 20), washed and dried well
1/3 cup finely chopped pistachios (optional)

Steps:

  • Place chocolate in a bowl set over (not in) a saucepan of simmering water. Stir occasionally, until melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

  • Chill chocolate-dipped strawberries at least 15 minutes to set chocolate. (Strawberries should not be stored in refrigerator longer than 1 hour as condensation drops may collect on the chocolate.)

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • Wash the strawberries thoroughly and pat them dry before dipping them in chocolate.
  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best results.
  • Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, to prevent overheating.
  • Dip the strawberries in the melted chocolate, then place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Refrigerate the strawberries for at least 30 minutes before serving, or until the chocolate has set.
  • If you want to get creative, you can drizzle the strawberries with melted chocolate of a different color, or sprinkle them with chopped nuts, crushed candy, or edible glitter.
