Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Something simple. That's what I'd like. A little sweet, a little fresh and juicy. The strawberries I got from my Bountiful Baskets order were perfect for this. So was that little holiday in February. I used milk chocolate, my favorite, and it was a little sweet. It masked the delicate sweetness of the strawberry a bit. Still, indulgent, no?

Happy Thursday.

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

1 pint strawberries

4 ounces chocolate bark coating, or your favorite chocolate

In a double boiler, melt the chocolate slowly, while stirring. Lay out a sheet of waxed paper on the counter. Wash and pat dry all of the strawberries, making sure that each has a little green stem to hold on to. With your fingers, hold the strawberries by the stem and swirl them in the chocolate. Lay them on the wax paper and cool.

It's that simple.
