Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Purely decadent is what I call these sweet little honeys. Why is it that the whole world (ok, maybe mostly Hollywood) finds these chocolaty bursts of passions in your mouth the epitome of romance? Honestly, I fall for it to every time, and I am completely ok with buying into it wholeheartedly! This recipe is nothing new, it’s just the only way I can melt chocolate successfully. Yes, I said it! Well, if melting chocolate isn't the easiest for you, I think you may just find this post helpful. Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 16 ounces milk chocolate chips
• 1 pound fresh strawberries with leaves
• parchment paper

Directions:
Wash and dry strawberries. Next, separate a few sheets of parchment paper. Place the milk chocolate chips in a cold nonstick skillet, making sure all of the chips are nicely touching the skillet for all of the chips to receive the heat. Then, turn the dial to the lowest it will go and just stand over the chocolate and wait, NO STIRRING. Soon you will began to see the chocolate melt very slowly. It will have the appearance of being almost soild but will began to look slightly lighter in color. Once it looks this way (heated almost through) stir, quickly dip strawberries in chocolate, and place on parchment paper to cool.
