Ingredients
  

For the Strawberries
  • 12 pieces Fresh Strawberries Use ripe and firm strawberries for optimal flavor and presentation.
For the Chocolate Coating
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips Opt for high-quality chocolate that melts smoothly.
  • 1 teaspoon Avocado Oil Gives a glossy finish to the chocolate coating.
Optional Toppings
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Nuts Like almonds or hazelnuts for a delightful texture contrast.
  • 1/4 cup Sprinkles Use colorful sprinkles or edible glitter for a fun twist.

Equipment

  • Microwave-safe Bowl
  • Platter
  • Wax paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at 50% power for 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. Stir in the avocado oil into the melted chocolate until fully incorporated.
  3. Dip fresh strawberries into the melted chocolate, swirling to coat completely and allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
  4. Place each dipped strawberry on a platter lined with wax paper, spaced apart to prevent sticking.
  5. Chill the platter in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
  6. Add optional toppings like nuts or sprinkles before the chocolate sets for added texture.
  7. Serve the chocolate-covered strawberries on a decorative plate once the chocolate has set.
