Recipe of the Week: Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

Avatar of Cody-A

Posted December 15, 2011 by Cody Ammerman

What can you possibly make with chocolate that’s somewhat healthy? Trail mix? Meh, that’s kind of boring—although it is delicious. Chocolate-covered oranges? Gross. Chocolate-covered strawberries? Heck, yeah!

Chocolate-Covered Strawberries
5 strawberries
1/3 cup dark chocolate chips

  • Wash the strawberries thoroughly.
  • Choose one of two ways to melt the chocolate chips: (1) Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and zap in the microwave for 1 minute. Stir and zap again, a minute at a time, being careful not to let burn. (2) Place the chocolate chips in a glass bowl set over a cup of boiling water. Stir until completely melted.
  • Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip into the chocolate. If you’re burning your fingers, use a spoon to slather on the chocolate instead.
  • Share with a friend and sink your teeth into happiness.

Makes 5 servings

Since most of us are beginning to think about our New Year’s resolution to get into shape, this is something that you can eat without feeling too guilty. Why not take these sweet treats to a party or your next family gathering? Everybody will enjoy them!

    Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.

    Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
