Try this classy take on chocolate covered strawberries! They are wonderfully refreshing, quick to make, and require just 3 ingredients!
Prep Time 22 minutes mins
Chill Time 1 hour hr
Total Time 1 hour hr 22 minutes mins
- 24 fresh strawberries (small to medium sized works best)
- 7 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (I use Hu Keto Baking Chocolate Chips No Added Sugar)
- ΒΌ cup unsweetened, shredded coconut (can use more or less)
First, line a mini muffin tin with mini paper cups.
Then slice the very tops with the leaves off of each strawberry. Flip each strawberry upside down and use a knife to cut half-way down lengthwise. Make 4-5 vertical slices around the strawberry starting from the top, until it opens up with your fingers into a rose. Set them aside.
Melt the chocolate chips in a non-stick pan or a double boiler. Stir the chocolate constantly until it is completely melted, ensuring not to burn it.
Scoop the melted chocolate with a measuring teaspoon and pour it into each cup. Then sprinkle the shredded coconut on top of the chocolate. Finally, gently press each strawberry (cut side facing up) into the chocolate.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. Keep refrigerated until serving.
