This is an easy, fast, delicious, elegant, and healthy recipe. Just make sure you do melt the chocolate in the microwave or over hot water. I thought I could save time by melting the chocolate over low heat on the stove, but, that was a bad idea! Do it the right way and you will be glad you found this recipe.

Excellent and so simple! Don't add shortening or oil or milk, don't add a thing. Other recipes I tried turned out with the chocolate too mushy. This dried on beautifully with a good crunch. Used semi-sweet and would recommend staying with bitter or semi. The sweetness of dark or milk chocolate overpowers the fruit and makes it taste bitter. That's why bitter or semi works so well. My husband and children devoured these and husband asked if I'd bought them or made them. He thought I spent ages on them. What a keeper. Simple, decadent and delicious.

Fun and easy to prepare! All you have to do is just dip and then wait till it hardens. If you dip chilled strawberries with chocolate, the chocolate will harden itself within seconds! And if time allows, use a double boiler to melt chocolate. It wont take long and you wont burn your chocolate as well. It's a wonderful recipe for those who need a last-minute gift for valentine's day or christmas.

What a treat! I made these for my hubby for Valentine's Day. I used all dark chocolate and added a tablespoon of unsalted sweet cream butter and 3 tbsp. heavy cream to give it a little gloss. After they set up for about 30 minutes in the fridge, I mixed up some cream cheese and powerded sugar and piped some decoration onto them. My husband thought I bought them from a local chocolate shop! I can't wait until it is strawberry picking time...yum! Thanks!

OH my gosh. So easy and so much prettier than when I've tried making them in the past. I also used canola oil instead of shortening, and it makes the chocolate much smoother and easier to handle. I also did a small batch with white chocolate chips, which burn faster. From Hershey's site - microwave them at 50% power for 1.5 minutes only and then stir (this is when I added the oil); microwave further if needed in SHORT increments. These were so beautiful and tasty!

I use Ghirardelli dark chocolate for this one. i dip one side of the strawberry in the chocolate and place it on wax paper opposite side down. throw them in the freezer for 2 minutes to seal the outside and stop the chocolate from dripping. then into the fridge. Beautiful!

Very simple to make. Only comment is that you aren't restricted to bittersweet baking chocolate. My boyfriend didn't really like the taste of the chocolate, so the second time I used Nestle's milk chocolate and it was a lot better.

Chocolate dipped strawberries are delicious, and this is one of the most easy recipies I have tried. I used three pounds of strawberries and 18 blocks of 'Baker's' Bittersweet chocolate and had very little extra chocolate go to waste. I like to slice the strawberries to about a quarter of an inch, dip them, then use (once hardened) as a topping for ice cream, cheesecake, and strawberry short-cake. A word to the wise - chocolate will burn *very* quickly, so I would recommend using a double-boiler rather than a microwave for increased control over the chocolate's melting rate.

I have been doing this on my own for years. I just thought I would include some other information I hope might help some out. Make sure to use room temperature, washed and thoroughly dried strawberries. Often I will go to the local specialty market where I can hand pick individual strawberries to get the perfect size and shape. I bring them home, wash and let them dry. I generally hold mine by the stem into the chocolate and spoon the chocolate over them...I learned from experience that often when dipping them the stem will break off otherwise...so mine are more chocolate covered strawberries than chocolate dipped. I then place mine on wax paper lined trays. Sometimes I drizzle mine with some melted white chocolate for an elegant touch. Then I refrigerate about an hour. Be sure to use high qualtiy chocolate...and no need to add shortening either. I never liked it that way (some recipes call for it) I personally don't like using it because of the trans fat. They don't last long! And, they are wonderful for parties!

I experimented with several chocolate covered strawberry recipes this week and this one worked great. I did not place in the refrigerator and just left them on my counter to harden. This is so easy, my kids were helping make some and even requested this as an afterschool snack. We tried other things to dip including grapes and gummy bears (those were awesome).

Use small bamboo skewers, let the strawberries dry and roll them in either crushed/chopped almonds, pecans, macadamias - I had alot of fun with this project!!!

These are really easy and impressive! Just a few pointers I learned from Hubby the Produce Clerk: 1. Wash the berries (they can be sandy) and always dry strawberries (pat with a kitchen towel) or they mush up really fast.2.When you melt chocolate in the microwave, it's easy to burn it if you keep cooking it until it loses its shape. When the chocolate chips look glossy, stir them and micro on in short increments until it stirs smooth. You have to serve these within the day because the heat from the chocolate makes the berries skin go squishy before long. :)
