Best Chocolate for Chocolate Covered Strawberries
When you are making chocolate covered strawberries the type of chocolate you use is super important. There are only 2 main ingredients for chocolate covered strawberries so it is very important that you use a flavorful, quality chocolate. I have found that bakers chocolate is the best chocolate to use.
Tips for Making this Recipe
Use Fresh Strawberries. Choose strawberries that are ripe but still firm. Avoid underripe or overripe and squishy strawberries.
Pick a high quality melting chocolate. You will be able to taste the difference! Ghirardelli Premium milk chocolate is my preferred milk chocolate. However as long as it is a quality chocolate it will work.
Make sure strawberries are dry after being washed. To be certain they were dry I used a paper towel on each berry, including the green tops before dipping.
Prep everything before getting started. Have a tray lined with wax paper ready to go along with the chocolate in a bowl that can easily be dipped into before starting will make your life much easier.
Room temperature. Use strawberries that are room temperature. If you keep yours in the fridge let them sit on the counter for about 30 minutes before using them.
Hold Strawberries by leafy greens when dipping. Holding the top/ greens will keep your fingers out of the chocolate and give a clean finish when you pull them out of the melted chocolate.
Milk Chocolate Covered Strawberries Ingredients

How to Make Milk Chocolate Covered Strawberries
Thoroughly wash and dry your strawberries. Line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper and set aside.
Using a double boiler melt the chocolate.
Once the milk chocolate is melted line up your supplies in order of strawberries, bowl of melted chocolate and then baking sheet.
Dip the strawberry into the melted milk chocolate.
Dip each strawberry one at a time in the melted milk chocolate and then after dipping carefully place each strawberry on the tray with enough space that they will not touch.
Allow 10 minutes or so for the chocolate to harden fully. Enjoy right away or store in an airtight container.
