Instructions
- Step 1: Rinse 16 large fresh strawberries under cold water and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels, making sure no moisture remains to help chocolate adhere.
- Step 2: Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside for dipping.
- Step 3: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 8 oz dark chocolate chips in 30-second intervals at 50% power, stirring well after each interval until smooth and glossy, approximately 1-2 minutes total.
- Step 4: Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted dark chocolate, swirling to coat evenly and letting excess drip off.
- Step 5: Immediately sprinkle each dipped strawberry with 1 tablespoon total of toasted sliced almonds before the chocolate sets.
- Step 6: Place dipped strawberries on the prepared wax paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes until chocolate is firm and glossy.
