Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 200 grams Vegan dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 50 grams Crushed nuts or shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the strawberries, ensuring they are completely dry to help the chocolate adhere properly.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the strawberries from sticking and make cleanup easier.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the vegan dark chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Microwave the chocolate mixture for 30 seconds, then stir. Repeat this process in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Add the sea salt to the melted chocolate and stir to combine for a subtle flavor enhancement.
Hold a strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, twirling to coat all sides. Lift and let the excess chocolate drip off.
If you are using crushed nuts or shredded coconut, immediately roll the dipped strawberry in your choice of topping.
Place the chocolate-covered strawberry on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the dipping process for all the strawberries.
Allow the strawberries to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or speed up the process by placing them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Once the chocolate has hardened, serve the strawberries on a platter and enjoy your vegan chocolate-covered treat!
