Serves: 36 strawberries
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
2 pints strawberries, stems intact
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate
1 tsp canola oil
1. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or waxed paper.
Wipe the strawberries clean and dry them well with paper
towels.
2. Melt the chocolate with the oil over a double boiler.
Stir until the mixture is smooth and the chocolate is
completely melted. Remove from heat.
3. Hold a strawberry by its green top and dip it 3/4 of
the way into the melted chocolate. Lift it out of the
chocolate, let the excess chocolate run off and set the
berry on one of the lined baking sheets. Repeat this
for all of the strawberries.
4. To harden the chocolate, chill the strawberries for
about an hour before serving. You can store them in the
refrigerator for up to 8 hours.
