Easy Strawberry White Chocolate Clusters Recipe
These clusters feature fresh strawberries coated in smooth white chocolate, creating a delightful balance of flavors and textures. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and yields approximately 12 clusters.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
- 1/4 cup crushed nuts or sprinkles for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries: Rinse and hull the strawberries, then cut them in half if they are large.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Coat the Strawberries: Dip each strawberry half into the melted white chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Form Clusters: Place the chocolate-coated strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You can cluster them together or space them apart, depending on your preference.
- Garnish: If desired, sprinkle crushed nuts or sprinkles on top of the chocolate before it sets.
- Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is firm.
- Serve: Once set, remove the clusters from the parchment paper and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
