Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Everybody knows strawberries and chocolate are one of the best combinations.

Even though they’re so simple to make, I thought i’d share what I used to make them. They’re a great snack for when you’re craving something short and sweet.

Yields : 15

chocolate covered strawberries

• 1 cup of chocolate chips or a chocolate bar
• 2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
• 1/4 cup of stevia, honey, or agave (optional: if chocolate isn’t sweet enough)

The ideal thing to do would be to melt the chocolate in a double boiler but because I don’t have one, I just melted it in the microwave. I microwaved it for 30 seconds at a time, stirring it each time so it wouldn’t burn. Once it is melted, mix in the coconut oil and sweetener. Then, dip your strawberries into the chocolate and place them on a pan to dry. While wet, I topped mine with melted peanut butter, and sprinkles.
