Vegan Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
Sweet, juicy strawberries dipped in smooth, dairy-free chocolate for an effortless yet indulgent dessert.
Ingredients
- 10 fresh strawberries washed and dried (wet strawberries = chocolate disaster)
- 1 cup dairy-free dark chocolate chopped
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil for extra smoothness
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts shredded coconut, or sea salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Melt the Chocolate
- Use a double boiler or microwave to melt the chocolate and coconut oil until smooth.
- Stir constantly to prevent burning (because burned chocolate is a crime).
- Step 2: Dip the Strawberries
- Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate.
- Twist slightly to coat evenly and let excess drip off.
- Place each dipped strawberry on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 3: Add Toppings & Chill
- Sprinkle with crushed nuts, coconut, or sea salt before the chocolate sets.
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until firm.
- Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
- Eat immediately or store in the fridge for up to two days.
- Try not to eat them all at once—but no judgment if you do.

Extra Tips for Perfect Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
- Dry strawberries completely before dipping or the chocolate won’t stick.
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for a richer taste (and to feel extra fancy).
- Let them chill at room temp for a glossy finish instead of refrigerating immediately.
- Want a drizzle effect? Use melted white dairy-free chocolate for contrast.
