I'm back with another interesting dessert recipe and it's our all-time favorite dessert Chocolate Covered Strawberry RecipeI happened to visit the local farmers market on Saturday, bought some fresh strawberries, and it was sweet & quite firm. I felt it was a perfect berry to make this dessert.

In fact, I have been wanting to make this recipe at home for a very long time and just gave it a try for the first time, to my surprise, it turned out so delicious and yummy.

The melted gooey dark chocolate coated on a strawberry tasted so heavenly, my heart and stomach was so happy after eating all of them in one go:) Then, in the evening, I made another batch of choco covered strawberries for my hubby and served it as a dinner dessert. If you are a berry lover, do try this choco-strawberry combo as it is such a refreshing and delightful dessert. Now, let's get started!

How to make chocolate-covered strawberry:


1. Wash and rinse the strawberries in water and dry them completely using a paper towel or a clean kitchen cloth. Take out all the moisture from the strawberries and keep it aside.

2. Keep a deep saucepan or steel container with water on a medium flame and let the water boil.

3. Place a wide glass bowl on top of the saucepan and keep some space between the glass bowl and the boiling water. (Note: This process is called the Double Boiling Method).

4. Add the chocolate chips to the glass bowl and let it melt slowly on medium flame. Add a tsp of oil to the chocolate to give a smooth and glossy texture. (Note: I used coconut oil here).

5. Keep stirring the chocolate chips using a spoon and switch off the flame once it's melted completely. (Note: The whole melting process took 20 minutes on a medium flame).

It was quite easy to make at home and if you have some white chocolate chips in hand, melt them using the double boiling method (refer step 2 & 3) and drizzle it on top of the dark chocolate covered berries. Do try this at home and let me know how it turns up. I have attached a short video for your reference and leave a comment if you have any questions.
