Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries
- 100 g dark chocolate roughly chopped
- 400 g strawberries
- 30 g white or milk chocolate optional, for drizzling
- Wash the strawberries and dry them completely — water keeps the chocolate from sticking. Line a tray with parchment paper.
- Melt the dark chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water, or in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Holding each berry by its green top, dip and twirl it in the chocolate, let the extra drip off, and set it on the parchment.
- If you like, melt the white or milk chocolate the same way and drizzle it over the dipped berries.
- Let the berries stand until the chocolate sets, about 15 minutes.
Leftover melted chocolate can be spread on parchment, left to harden, and melted again another day.
