Chocolate Covered Strawberries
Ingredients:
16 ounces milk chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening
1 pound fresh strawberries with leaves
Directions:
1. Insert toothpicks into the tops of the strawberries.(I didn't do this)
2. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate and shortening, stirring occasionally until smooth. Holding them by the toothpicks, dip the strawberries into the chocolate mixture.
3. Turn the strawberries upside down and insert the toothpick into styrofoam for the chocolate to cool.(I just layed them on wax paper and put in the fridge)
Here are the results:
There is pretty much nothing better than chocolate covered strawberries in my book...or chocolate covered pretzels. I guess anything covered in chocolate really! =)
