Fresh strawberries with a little bit of light cream make a perfect dessert. However, if I want something fancier, I make chocolate cowered strawberries. The recipe is simple.
1 pound fresh strawberries (washed and dried with a paper towel)
16 onces milk chocolate chips
1 – 2 tablespoons of butter (optional)
Insert toothpicks into the tops of the strawberries. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips and butter (adding butter will make the chocolate cover shinier). Dip the strawberries into the melted chocolate and insert the toothpick into Styrofoam so the chocolate may cool.
You can stop here, or you can go additional step and decorate your strawberries with white chocolate stripes. Just melt a little bit of white chocolate chips and use a wooden spoon to make imperfect lines on the strawberries.

This looks delicious and decorative. We sometimes use to dip different fruits, marshmellows and cookies in the warm chocolate sauce.... also a nice party dessert!
Hi Olga, I found your blog today and enjoyed reading about your garden.
We have a small garden, and grow mostly herbs. On my blog, I choose a different herb each week and research all I can find about it. How to grow it, and how to use it.

The strawberries look delicious, I wish they were still in season here in Michigan.
