Ingredients
Ingredients
- 24 strawberries
- 1 cup white chocolate melting wafers (or white candy melts)
- ½ cup red, white, and blue nonpareils
Instructions
- Clean the strawberries: Thoroughly wash the strawberries and pat them completely dry using a paper towel to ensure the chocolate adheres properly.
- Melt the chocolate: Place the white chocolate melting wafers or candy melts in a small, deep bowl. Microwave them in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Dip the strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip about two-thirds of it into the melted white chocolate. Immediately after, dip the remaining one-third portion into the red, white, and blue nonpareils to decorate.
- Set the strawberries: Place the dipped strawberries on a baking tray or countertop lined with wax paper to set. If your environment is hot or humid, refrigerate the strawberries to help the chocolate harden faster and prevent melting.
Notes
- Make sure strawberries are completely dry before dipping to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
- Use a deep bowl for melting chocolate to make dipping easier and less messy.
- If the chocolate thickens, gently reheat it in short intervals until smooth again.
- Store finished strawberries in the refrigerator and consume within 1-2 days for maximum freshness.
