makes 8 servings
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, melted
8 organic strawberries, rinsed and dried
1. Line a flat plate with wax paper.
2. Fill a small sauce pot with about 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil.
3. Place a heat-resistant bowl on top of the sauce pot The bottom of the bowl should not hit the water.
4. Place the chocolate chips into the bowl.
5. Stir the chocolate until it is completely melted and smooth.
6. Grab a strawberry by its leaves and dip it into the melted chocolate. Twist to cover completely. Let the excess chocolate drip off. Place on the wax paper-covered plate.
7. Repeat step five until all strawberries have been covered in chocolate.
8. Place the strawberries in the fridge and let cool until chocolate sets.
9. Share with your valentine, or eat 'em yourself. (Note: allowing the chocolate-covered strawberries to chill longer than an hour can cause condensation to form on the chocolate.)
