Ingredients:

  • 1 lb fresh strawberries
  • 12 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions:

  1. Rinse the 1 lb fresh strawberries gently under cold water, keeping the green stems intact. Use a paper towel to pat each berry completely dry.
  2. Place 12 oz chocolate chips and 1 tsp coconut oil in a microwave-safe glass bowl. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then remove and stir.
  3. Continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is velvety and smooth.
  4. Hold a strawberry by the green hull and dip it into the melted chocolate, swirling it slightly to cover the sides.
  5. Lift the berry and gently shake off the excess chocolate to avoid a thick bottom.
  6. Place each berry onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Optionally, drizzle leftover chocolate over the top using a fork.
  7. Place the tray in the refrigerator for 30 minutes until the shell is firm.
