Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 large Fresh strawberries
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup White chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Crushed nuts (e.g., pistachios or almonds)
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt flakes
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil (optional, for thinning chocolate)
Instructions
Thoroughly wash and dry the strawberries, keeping the tops intact for easier handling.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is evenly coated, leaving the green top exposed. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the strawberry onto the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle a pinch of crushed nuts and a tiny pinch of sea salt onto the freshly dipped strawberry before the chocolate sets. Repeat for all strawberries.
Melt the white chocolate chips with the heavy cream in a separate microwave-safe bowl, heating in 15-second intervals and stirring until smooth.
Using a spoon or a small piping bag, drizzle the melted white chocolate over the dipped strawberries for a decorative look.
Allow the strawberries to rest at room temperature until the chocolate is fully set, about 20 minutes. You can speed up the process by placing them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Transfer the strawberries to a serving plate and enjoy immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
