There’s not much you can do to improve the fully ripe strawberry — that is unless you dip them in really nice chocolate. What better way to get your antioxidants? And it’s so easy — tastes like candy too — you only need two ingredients and you are justified in eating them all yourself. However, you only get these in strawberries season. And of course, it’s better share (I think). And they taste better than candy. Here’s what you need:

1. Fresh Strawberries
2. Milk Chocolate chips or Dark Chocolate Chips (choose a quality chocolate — Guittard is the same chocolate used by Sees and is available at many grocery stores)

Instructions
  1. Wash and dry strawberries, making sure they dry completely — no water left on them.
  2. Melt chocolate in a glass bowl in the microwave, stir to make sure it is melted. Or use a double-boiler on the stove top.
  3. Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate and place on parchment paper or wax paper.
  4. Let set and refrigerate until you eat them.
Notes
It helps to place the parchment on a pan that will fit easily into your refrigerator.
