Ingredients:

  • 1 lb fresh strawberries, large and firm
  • 10 oz high-quality semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions:

  1. Wash and dry the 1 lb fresh strawberries.
  2. Chop the 10 oz semi sweet chocolate into uniform pieces.
  3. Set up a double boiler with 1 inch of water in the bottom pot.
  4. Melt the chocolate and 1 tsp coconut oil, stirring constantly until velvety and glossy.
  5. Whisk in 1 tbsp room temperature butter until the mixture is completely smooth.
  6. Hold a strawberry by the stem and dip it into the chocolate, swirling gently.
  7. Lift the berry and shake it slightly until the excess chocolate drips off.
  8. Place the berry onto parchment paper with a slight tug to the side to prevent a large puddle.
  9. Rest the berries at room temperature for 15 minutes until the shine starts to matte.
  10. Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes until the shell is hard and snaps.
