These Strawberry Chocolate Clusters are a simple, delicious, and elegant treat that combines the sweetness of strawberries with the richness of chocolate. They’re perfect for parties, gifts, or a quick dessert. Here’s how to make them:
Strawberry Chocolate Clusters
Ingredients
- 1 cup (150g) fresh strawberries, hulled and halved (or quartered if large)
- 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
- 1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
- Optional toppings: crushed nuts, shredded coconut, or sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberries:
- Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries. Make sure they are completely dry, as any moisture can cause the chocolate to seize.
- Melt the chocolate:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Dip the strawberries:
- Dip each strawberry half into the melted chocolate, coating it about halfway. Shake off any excess chocolate.
- Add toppings (optional):
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle with crushed nuts, shredded coconut, or sprinkles if desired.
- Set the chocolate:
- Place the dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Let the chocolate set at room temperature or refrigerate for 10-15 minutes until firm.
- Serve:
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Tips
- Use high-quality chocolate: For the best flavor, use good-quality chocolate chips or baking chocolate.
- Add variety: Use white chocolate or milk chocolate for a different twist.
- Make ahead: These clusters can be made a day in advance and stored in the fridge.
These Strawberry Chocolate Clusters are a quick, easy, and delightful treat that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy! 🍓🍫✨
