1
pint (2 cups) medium-large strawberries (18 to 20 strawberries)
1/2
cup semisweet chocolate chips or white vanilla baking chips
1
teaspoon shortening or vegetable oil
  • 1 Gently rinse strawberries and dry on paper towels (berries must be completely dry). Line cookie sheet with waxed paper.
  • 2 In 1-quart saucepan, melt chocolate chips and shortening over low heat, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.
  • 3 Dip lower half of each strawberry into chocolate mixture; allow excess to drip back into saucepan. Place on waxed paper-lined tray or cookie sheet.
  • 4 Refrigerate uncovered about 30 minutes or until chocolate is firm, or until ready to serve. Store covered in refrigerator so chocolate does not soften (if made with oil, chocolate will soften more quickly at room temperature).

Expert Tips

Arrange these elegant berries around the base of a cake, or place on top to dress up any dessert.

RE darkstarv21: I’m sorry you were disappointed in this recipe. For the success of this recipe be sure to use real semi sweet chocolate chips and not the chocolate flavored baking chips which have less butter fat and have a more waxy texture and mouth feel. If you would like more chocolate for dipping you can increase the amount of chips to ≤ cup without affecting the outcome of the recipe.

I made these with shortening, and they were flat out disgusting, not to mention they amount of chocolate chips to number of strawberries was not enough.

Fantastic absolutely fantastic! I used oil instead of solid shortening and they came out fine. Keep them cold the best you can.
