Chocolate Covered Strawberry Bites
Description:
Chocolate covered strawberry bites are sweet, bite-sized treats made with juicy strawberries coated in smooth melted chocolate. They’re simple, elegant, and perfect for parties, holidays, or an easy dessert when you want something special without a lot of work.
Ingredients
1 pound fresh strawberries
1½ cups semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
1 teaspoon coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother chocolate)
Instructions
Wash strawberries and pat completely dry with paper towels.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, coating about three-quarters of the way up.
Place dipped strawberries onto the prepared baking sheet.
Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes, or until chocolate is set.
Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Tips and Variations
Drizzle with white chocolate for a decorative finish.
Chop strawberries into halves or quarters before dipping for true “bites.”
Add sprinkles or crushed nuts before the chocolate sets.
