4 How To Make Chocolate Covered Strawberries – Rajneet Deva
For making this delicious recipe we need the following ingredients.
1) Strawberries (8-10)
2) Chocolate (white/dark/brown)
Other than this we also need some supplies,
1) Parchment paper
2) Cupcake linings
3) Ziploc bags or piping tube
4) Paper towel
5) Sprinkles of your choice.
Let’s begin this.
Steps 1) Wash your strawberries and pat dry with a paper towel. After washing your berries, put them aside.
Step 2) The next step is to melt chocolate. Working with chocolate is a bit messy so being careful is key to success. For this, I used a cup and chopped some chocolate into small pieces. Then, I microwaved it for 30 seconds. It will not melt at the first time. You must do it for 3 times/30 seconds. If you continuously melt chocolate for more than 30 seconds, you may risk burning the chocolate. For the white chocolate, I used a different method. I melted it in a double boiler. The reason I used another method is to show that it can be effective for you to do also; it gives you the best control over heat so it does not burn the chocolate.
You can create a double boiler by bringing a pot filled with less water to simmer.
Step 3) Take your parchment paper ready on a hard surface. I had small ones so I used 6. You can use big or whatever is available at home.
Step 4) One by one, dip your strawberries into the chocolate. Here, you can use a toothpick that can hold the strawberries to make it easier. When it is fully covered with chocolate mix, put it on paper. Do all of your strawberries one by one. I made it half white and brown. Do as you desire.
Step 5) Once all the strawberries are dipped, take a Ziploc bag and add some chocolate of your preference. Cut your bag and make it as a cone. Now drizzle your chocolate mix on the strawberries as shown in the picture. Do it however you like. You can make different types of designs. But here I am showing a simple one.
Step 6) Put all the strawberries into the freezer for like 10-15 minutes so they can chill.
Step 7)Last step, if it is a present or surprise for someone prepare a box and add your strawberries in cupcake linings. I got this box and paper from Dollar store. Don’t forget to add sprinkles!
There you have it! A simple and elegant recipe that you can present and it tastes so good!
