Ingredients

  • 1 pound strawberries
  • 3/4 cup semi- sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon dark spiced rum optional
  • 2 tablespoons white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Wash the strawberries well. Place in a bowl and cover with ice water for about 5 minutes. Drain really well and dry with a tea towel, paper towel or air dry completely.
  • Heat heavy whipping cream and rum in a small pan over low heat but do not bring to a full boil. Remove from heat just as mixture starts to bubble.
  • Place chocolate chips in a bowl.
  • Pour cream over chocolate chips and set aside about 3 minutes.
  • Stir together until chocolate chips are completely melted. If chocolate doesn't completely melt, place in the microwave in 10 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Grab strawberries by the stem and dip into the melted chocolate.
  • Place on lined baking sheet, repeating with the remaining strawberries.
  • Melt white chocolate chips in a non stick pan over low heat or in the microwave in 15 second intervals until melted. Drizzle over strawberries using a fork or place in a piping bag (be careful with this method, the white chocolate could burn you).
  • Place strawberries in the refrigerator to set up about 20 - 30 minutes.

Notes

  • Garnish Ideas: Toasted coconut, decorative sprinkles, finely chopped toasted nuts, crushed graham crackers or cookies. Sprinkle any of the garnishes on after dipping into chocolate.
  • Storage: Store chocolate covered strawberries loosely covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days.
