Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries

Ingredients

• 12 large fresh strawberries, washed and dried well
• 8 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped
• 1 tsp vegetable oil
• 2 tbsp white chocolate, melted, for drizzling (optional)
• 2 tbsp chopped nuts or sprinkles, for decorating (optional)

Instructions

1. 1Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2Make sure the strawberries are completely dry, since any moisture will keep the chocolate from sticking.
3. 3Melt the semisweet chocolate with the vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.
4. 4Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted chocolate, twirling gently to coat about two-thirds of the berry.
5. 5Place the dipped strawberries on the prepared sheet and decorate with a drizzle of melted white chocolate, chopped nuts, or sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.
6. 6Let the strawberries sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes, until the chocolate has fully set.
