Valentine’s Day is around the corner and love is in the air! Have you decided on the perfect gift for your significant other yet? Give a gift from your heart and whip up a batch of chocolate covered strawberries - it’s quite simple with this recipe:
1lb stawberries
12 oz. semisweet chocolate chips
white chocolate for drizzling
1 tablespoon of oil
- Leaving tops on, wash strawberries and then dry each of them thoroughly (very important since any water will ruin the chocolate).
- In a small saucepan, add oil and chocolate chips and melt over very low flame, stirring constantly until smooth.
- One by one, dip berry, gently shake and swirl the dripping chocolate as you lift upward, then turn tip upward to fill gaps.
- Place on waxed paper, drizzle with white chocolate, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Your mate never needs to know just how simple this was.

Did I forget to instruct you to dip a spoon in melted white chocolate before drizzling?
