Ingredients
  

1 pound fresh strawberries (washed and dried thoroughly, stems on)

8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (or dark chocolate for a richer taste)

2 tablespoons coconut oil (optional, for a glossy finish)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)

Sea salt or crushed nuts (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: Make sure your strawberries are thoroughly washed and dried. Any moisture can prevent the chocolate from sticking properly.

    Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave at 50% power for 30-second intervals, stirring well after each. Continue until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. If you choose to use vanilla extract, stir it in once the chocolate is melted.

      Dip the Strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, coating it about two-thirds of the way up. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the strawberry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

        Garnish (Optional): While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt or crushed nuts on top for an extra touch of flavor and texture.

          Set the Chocolate: Once all strawberries are dipped, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.

            Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate is firm, remove the strawberries from the refrigerator and serve on a platter. Enjoy your easy yet elegant treat!
