Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 24 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 24 large fresh strawberries with stems
  • 16 ounces semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil or vegetable shortening
  • 4 ounces white chocolate chips optional, for drizzling
  • Holiday sprinkles or crushed candy canes for decoration optional

Method
 

  1. Wash strawberries; pat completely dry with paper towels so chocolate adheres. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Microwave chocolate with 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl at 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth.
  3. Hold berries by stems; swirl in chocolate to coat about 3/4 and let excess drip into bowl.
  4. Place on sheet; add optional sprinkles immediately while chocolate is wet.
  5. For optional drizzle, melt white chocolate with remaining 1 tablespoon coconut oil; transfer to a small zip-top bag, snip a tiny corner, and drizzle.
  6. Refrigerate 30 minutes until completely set.
  7. Enjoy within 24-48 hours; store airtight in refrigerator with parchment between layers.
