Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Wash and dry fresh strawberries thoroughly. Make sure they are completely dry.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth.
Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring the berry is well coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
Place chocolate-covered strawberries on parchment paper in a single layer. Sprinkle your favorite sprinkles generously while the chocolate is still warm, before it sets.
Refrigerate for about 30 minutes until the chocolate sets. Once hardened, transfer to a serving plate, and enjoy!

Notes

For perfect chocolate covered strawberries, ensure they're thoroughly dry before dipping to achieve a smooth coating. Place them in the fridge post-dipping for a quick set, and store in a single layer to prevent sticking. Store your chocolate-covered strawberries in an airtight container in the fridge for optimal freshness. They are best enjoyed within 1-2 days to maintain the perfect balance of juiciness and chocolatey goodness. Don't be afraid to experiment – while this recipe suggests dark chocolate, feel free to use milk, semi-sweet, or white chocolate for your unique twist - and you can always change up the sprinkles colors or leave them off entirely!
