Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (or chopped dark chocolate, approximately 300 grams)
  • 0.75 teaspoon vegetable oil (avocado oil or other neutral-tasting oil)
  • 18-20 medium fresh strawberries Choose fresh, ripe strawberries that are free from blemishes.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Rinse and dry the strawberries completely with a towel or paper towel. Allow them to warm up to room temperature if stored in the refrigerator.
Melting the Chocolate
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate and vegetable oil. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring well until melted and smooth.
  2. Keep the temperature around 100°F or lower to prevent burning.
Dipping the Strawberries
  1. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Dip each strawberry in the chocolate until thoroughly coated, allowing excess to drip off.
  2. Place the dipped strawberries on the prepared pan with space between them. Drizzle any leftover chocolate over them and allow the chocolate to harden at room temperature.

Notes

For best results, consider sprinkling toppings like crushed nuts, sprinkles, or sea salt on top before the chocolate hardens. Store in the refrigerator for freshness, ideally consuming within 24 hours.
