Ingredients
Method
- Wash and pat the strawberries completely dry — water and melted chocolate are sworn enemies.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a heatproof bowl, combine dark chocolate and coconut oil.
- Melt over a double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it halfway into the melted chocolate.
- Gently twist as you lift to avoid drips — finesse, darling, finesse.
- Place dipped strawberries on the parchment-lined tray.
- Sprinkle with crushed nuts, coconut, or sea salt for extra flair.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 20–30 minutes until firm.
- Serve cold, and try not to eat them all before the guests arrive.

Additional Notes / Tips
- Use room-temperature strawberries — cold ones make the chocolate seize faster than your ex’s commitment.
- Dark chocolate gives the best glossy finish and depth of flavor.
- Add a drizzle of melted white vegan chocolate for that “I own a bakery” look.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to two days — though “leftovers” rarely happen.
- Perfect for Valentine’s, brunch spreads, or solo dessert therapy.
