Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Fun and easy to make recipe, these chocolate covered strawberries are great to make with the kids. With loads of fresh fruit, they are a healthier alternative to chocolate desserts and treats.

• Carefully melt the chocolate in a heat proof bowl over some hot water or in the microwave by heating for 30 seconds on a low setting then stirring and repeat. Whichever method you choose, continue until almost completely melted then allow the last few lumps to melt in the residual heat.
• Set out your decorations in little bowls ready to use.
• Once the chocolate is melted, dip a strawberry in up to its ‘shoulders’ allow it to drip for a few seconds then dip into one of your bowls of decorations and lay on a sheet of grease proof paper to set.
• Repeat with the rest of your strawberries.
