Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup (200g) white chocolate chips
  • 12 large strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon (15g) shortening (optional)
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 200°F (90°C) for warming the strawberries before coating.
  2. Rinse the strawberries gently and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  3. Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval, until smooth.
  4. Dip each strawberry into the melted white chocolate, coating about 3/4 of the strawberry, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Refrigerate the chocolate-covered strawberries for at least 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
  6. Serve chilled, garnished with fresh mint leaves if desired, and enjoy within 24 hours for optimal freshness.
