Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberry Bites Recipe

This dessert features fresh strawberries dipped in melted chocolate, creating a deliciously sweet and slightly tart flavor combination. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and yields approximately 12 bites.

Ingredients

12 fresh strawberries, washed and dried
1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoothness)
Sprinkles, crushed nuts, or shredded coconut for topping (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Strawberries: Ensure the strawberries are completely dry after washing, as water can prevent the chocolate from adhering properly.
Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Dip the Strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off. Place the dipped strawberry on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle your choice of toppings over the chocolate before it sets.
Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
Serve: Enjoy your Chocolate Covered Strawberry Bites as a delicious dessert or snack!
