Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Fresh strawberries
- 200 grams Vegan white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons Freeze-dried raspberries (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
- 1 sheet Parchment paper
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and gently pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Ensure they are completely dry before dipping; water can affect how the chocolate adheres.
Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prepare a non-stick surface for the strawberries.
In a heatproof bowl, combine the vegan white chocolate chips and coconut oil. This helps achieve a smooth, shiny texture.
Melt the white chocolate mixture using a double boiler method: place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Alternatively, you can melt the white chocolate in the microwave. Heat it in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.
Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted vegan white chocolate, twirling to coat it evenly. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off back into the bowl.
Place the coated strawberry onto the parchment-lined baking tray. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
If using optional garnishes, sprinkle freeze-dried raspberries or shredded coconut onto the chocolate while it is still wet to adhere.
Once all strawberries are coated, place the tray in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set.
Serve the vegan white chocolate-covered strawberries immediately, or store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 24 hours for best freshness.
