# What You'll Need:
→ Fruit
01 - 20 large fresh strawberries, rinsed and thoroughly dried with leaves intact
→ Chocolate
02 - 7 oz good-quality dark or milk chocolate, chopped
03 - 3.5 oz white chocolate, chopped (optional, for drizzling or decoration)
→ Decorations
04 - 4 tablespoons assorted colorful sprinkles, Easter-themed preferred
# How To Make It:
01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure strawberries are completely dry—any residual moisture will prevent chocolate from adhering properly.
02 - Place dark or milk chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Melt gently using a double boiler method over simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Alternatively, microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between bursts, until fully melted.
03 - Hold each strawberry by the leaves and dip into melted chocolate, swirling to coat almost to the top. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
04 - Place each dipped strawberry on the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet.
05 - While chocolate remains wet, sprinkle colorful sprinkles over each coated strawberry.
06 - If desired, melt white chocolate using the same method. Use a small spoon or piping bag to drizzle decoratively over the chocolate-dipped strawberries.
07 - Allow chocolate to set at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes until firm.
08 - Serve immediately or store in a single layer within an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
