25 Reviews of Chocolate Covered Strawberries

I had leftover chocolate chips from another Strawberry recipe listed here. They were more adult friendly with coffee liqueur in them. I decided to try this recipe so they had some strawberries to try. Instead of the adding the fat, I added 2 Tablespoon of strong brewed coffee like the other recipe I tried called for plus my children love the flavor of coffee. I liked the idea of using toothpicks to help hold the strawberries while you dipped them in the chocolate. I used a double boiler to melt the chocolate and then added the brewed coffee. I couldnit put the chocolate covered strawberries into the styrofoam without touching the tips. Instead, I placed them on wax paper to dry.

These were so good. I made them for a bridal shower and they were a huge hit. I had so many requests for this recipe. After reading the other reviews I might try them with bananas the next time. Thanks Brenda M for posting this.

Excellant! It also worked well with bananas. I cut the bananas into 1 inch pieces and froze them for 1/2 hour before dipping. Proceed as above. Yummy!

A very romantic and tasty treat for Valentine's Day! Very easy to make, if you run out of stawberries, bananas work good too. Instead of styrofoam, a box works too.

good, i tried the way audrey suggested with the coffee instead of using the shortening to reduce the calories. The mixture kinda was a funny pasty texture but it tasted good and was quick and easy.

These gems are so good and so easy to make. A perfect Valentine for my sweetie. I made half a recipe and after dipping them, placed them on waxpaper to harden. Something I will make many times over.
