Chocolate-covered strawberries with dark chocolate on a wooden board

Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

Fresh strawberries and rich dark chocolate come together in an elegant two-ingredient dessert that’s surprisingly easy to make.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb 454 g fresh strawberries (about 12 - 16 strawberries)
  • 200 g 7 oz good-quality semisweet or dark chocolate, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Wash the strawberries and pat them thoroughly dry. Leave them to air-dry until no moisture remains, particularly around the leaves.
  • Line a baking sheet or large plate with parchment paper.
  • Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-second intervals, stirring well each time. When just a few pieces remain, stop heating and stir until completely smooth.
  • Hold each strawberry by its leaves and dip it into the chocolate. Let the excess fall back into the bowl, then place on the parchment. Continue with the remaining berries.
  • Leave at room temperature until the chocolate has set.
