How to Make Chocolate Covered Strawberries

  1. Wash 1 pound of fresh strawberries thoroughly and gently pat them dry with paper towels.
  2. Remove the green stems from the strawberries and set aside.
  3. Place the strawberries on a paper towel-lined baking sheet or plate and allow them to reach room temperature. This helps the chocolate adhere better.
  4. In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt 12 ounces of your favorite semi-sweet chocolate chips, 2 tablespoons of light corn syrup, and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Stir occasionally until smooth and completely melted.
  5. Remove the melted chocolate from the heat and let it cool slightly. This prevents the chocolate from melting the strawberries too quickly.
  6. Dip each strawberry about 2/3 of the way into the melted chocolate, gently rotating to coat evenly. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
  7. Place the chocolate-covered strawberries stem-side down on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet or plate.
  8. Refrigerate the strawberries for at least 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
