Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

Everyone's favorite treat! Fresh, juicy strawberries are enrobed in tempered milk chocolate and are either rolled in candy toppings or coated with melted white and dark chocolate drizzle. This is my all-time favorite, go-to confection and takes mere minutes to make!

Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 750 grams premium milk chocolate reserve 150g for seed chocolate
  • 1 pound strawberries, rinsed and thoroughly dried
  • Toppings: melted chocolate drizzle, mini M&Ms, rainbow sprinkles, chocolate chips, chopped nuts, shredded coconut, etc.

Equipment

  • 1 microwave-safe bowl
  • 1 rubber spatula
  • 1 baking sheet
  • 1 sheet of parchment paper
  • 1 collander
  • paper towels

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Rinse and thoroughly dry the strawberries with a paper towel.
  2. Temper the chocolate.
  3. Hold the berries by the stem and dip the berry into the chocolate. Drag the bottom of the berry against the edge of the bowl to prevent chocolate from pooling around the bottom of the berry. Roll berries in toppings before placing on the baking sheet.
  4. Allow berries to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, the transfer to the refrigerator until fully set, 15-30 minutes. Store in the fridge until ready to eat.
  5. (Optional): If using a contrasting chocolate drizzle, allow the milk chocolate to fully set first before decorating, allow the drizzle to set for 15 minutes at room temperature, and then store berries in the fridge until ready to eat.
