Because, when your youngest baby is feeling super yucky and asks for Chocolate Covered Strawberries, you make Chocolate Covered Strawberries… even if it is 10:00pm.  🙂

Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Ingredients:

1 pound ripe strawberries
1- 12 ounce package chocolate chips
4 tablespoons shortening

Instructions: 

Line baking sheet with wax paper.  Add chocolate chips and shortening to a microwave safe bowl and melt  according to directions on chocolate chip package.  Carefully dip strawberries into melted chocolate twisting and turning until entirely covered.  Place on cookie sheet.  When all strawberries are dipped, place baking sheet into fridge allowing chocolate to cool and set.  Enjoy!

These are so much fun to decorate!  These were a pretty quick fix with no decorating involved but, next time, I’ll make them fancy.  Strawberries dipped in milk chocolate are Kylee’s favorite.  I LOVE white chocolate dipped!  Tint your leftover white chocolate to make a wonderful, colorful drizzle.  Sprinkles are the best, too!  Anything goes; they’ll be fabulous and fun!
