Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
- 12 pieces strawberries
- 2 pieces banana
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
- 12 pieces toothpicks or skewers
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries. Peel the bananas and cut them into 1-inch thick slices. Prepare the pineapple chunks if they're not pre-cut.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips using the same method until smooth.
Using toothpicks or skewers, dip the strawberries, banana slices, and pineapple chunks halfway into the semisweet chocolate. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the dipped fruit onto the prepared parchment paper.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the dipped fruit using a spoon or piping bag for a decorative touch (optional).
Allow the chocolate to set completely. You can leave it at room temperature or place the fruit in the refrigerator for faster setting (about 15 minutes).
Once the chocolate is fully hardened, serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
