Ingredients
# 6 ounces of dark chocolate
# 16 ounces of strawberries (15-25 depending on their size), washed and dried
# A cup of shredded coconut
# A cup of ground almonds
Makes 15-25 beautiful strawberries.
Directions
Have a baking sheet covered with a silpat mat or parchment paper all set up. Pour your almonds and coconut into 2 separate bowls.
Bring a couple inches of water to a boil in a small saucepan, then reduce to a simmer. Place any bowl that will fit on top of the pan and add chocolate. Allow chocolate to melt, stirring occasionally.
Once chocolate has melted, hold the green of the berry and dip in the chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off berry and then immediately dip the berry into either the nuts or the coconut.
Place strawberry on baking sheet. Once all the strawberries are done pop them in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or until set.
*If you have any extra melted chocolate, dip whatever you can get your hands on in there!! Think nuts, dried fruits, pretzels, etc.
