01

Step
5 mins

Prepare your workstation by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the chocolate from sticking and make for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Gently wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries. Ensure they are completely dry, as moisture can prevent the chocolate from adhering properly. (10 minutes)

03

Step
7 mins

Melt the chocolate using a double boiler or a microwave. For the double boiler method, place the chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a simmering pot of water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir frequently until completely melted and smooth. For the microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat. (5-7 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Holding a strawberry by its stem, dip it into the melted chocolate, swirling to coat evenly. Lift the strawberry and gently shake off any excess chocolate. (1 minute per strawberry)

05

Step
0 mins

Place the chocolate-dipped strawberry onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. (30 seconds per strawberry)

06

Step
20 mins

Once all strawberries are dipped, allow them to set at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to expedite the process. The chocolate should be firm to the touch before serving. (15-30 minutes)

For a decorative touch, drizzle melted white chocolate or sprinkle with chopped nuts or sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and appearance. Avoid chocolate chips, as they often contain stabilizers that prevent them from melting smoothly.
If the chocolate begins to thicken while dipping, gently reheat it to maintain a smooth consistency.
For a vegan option, use dairy-free chocolate.

    My kids loved helping me make these. We added sprinkles and they were gone in minutes!

  • Ashley Schmitt

    These were so easy to make and looked beautiful! I used Ghirardelli chocolate and they were a hit at my party.

  • Violet Hamillullrich

    I tried using cheaper chocolate and it didn't melt as nicely. Definitely worth it to splurge on the good stuff.
