Equipment

  • 1 baking sheet
  • 1 parchment paper
  • 1 double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
  • 1 fork or skewer
  • 1 small mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 12 large fresh strawberries About 1 lb.
  • 8 oz white chocolate Chopped or chips.
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil Optional, for added sheen.

Instructions
 

  • Begin by washing the strawberries under cool running water. Pat them dry gently with a paper towel. Make sure they are completely dry, as water can prevent the chocolate from adhering properly.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • If you're using a double boiler, fill the bottom pot with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Place the chopped white chocolate or white chocolate chips in the top pot. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth. If using a microwave, place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.
  • If you want a smoother finish, stir the tablespoon of coconut oil into the melted chocolate.
  • Hold each strawberry by the green stem or skewer and dip it into the melted white chocolate, swirling to coat fully. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
  • Place the chocolate-covered strawberry on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining strawberries.
  • Once all strawberries are coated, you can leave them plain or decorate them with additional toppings like crushed nuts or sprinkles if desired.
  • Let the strawberries sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes until the chocolate sets, or you can refrigerate them for quicker results.
  • Serve the strawberries immediately after the chocolate has set, or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

For a fun twist, consider drizzling melted dark chocolate over the white chocolate for a decorative touch.
These strawberries are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two days.
