- Hold the strawberry by the toothpicks and leafy stems. Dip the strawberry into the chocolate and gently shake off any excess chocolate. Place the chocolate strawberry into the bowl that has the toppings and roll it around until fully covered. Place the strawberry onto parchment and repeat the process until all the strawberries are coated. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Microwave the white chocolate and 1/4 coconut oil for 30 seconds and stir. Repeat the process until melted. Allow the white chocolate to cool for 2 to 3 minutes, and pour it into a zip-lock bag. Snip off a VERY tiny corner of the bag. Take the strawberries out of the fridge and drizzle the chocolate by making horizontal lines over the strawberries. Place the strawberries in the fridge for a few minutes so the white chocolate drizzle sets. Enjoy!3.5 ounces white chocolate chips, 1/4 teaspoon coconut oil
Notes
- If the chocolate begins to cool down, just pop it in the microwave for 20 seconds.
- I highly recommend that you enjoy your chocolate strawberries on the day they are prepared, but if you choose to store them, just place the tray of strawberries uncovered in the fridge, and they will be great for up to 3 days.
- Pour extra chocolate onto parchment paper and let it cool. Break up the chocolate and place it into a sealed bag for future use.
