Vegan Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
Fresh strawberries dipped in smooth, dairy-free chocolate, finished with optional toppings for extra flair.
Ingredients
- 12 fresh strawberries rinsed and dried
- 1 cup vegan dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil for extra smoothness
- Optional toppings: crushed nuts shredded coconut, sea salt, or cacao nibs
Instructions
- Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries—chocolate refuses to stick to wet fruit.
- In a heatproof bowl, add chocolate chips and coconut oil.
- Melt using a double boiler method (place the bowl over simmering water) or microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring each time.
- Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, twisting slightly for an even coat.
- Place dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined tray.
- If using toppings, sprinkle immediately before the chocolate hardens.
- Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes or until the chocolate sets.
- Try not to eat them all at once (no judgment if you do).
