Ingredients
- 1 lb Strawberries
- 1 cup Chocolate Chip
- Your Choice of Nuts
- Coconut Flakes
- 1 tsp Shortening
- Lollipop Sticks
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients for the recipe. For nuts, I used crushed hazelnuts and almonds.
- Cut off the ends off strawberries and stick lollipop sticks into the strawberries.
- Melt chocolate with shortening in a microwave. Continue stirring the chocolate every 20 seconds, this way it doesn't burn. As soon as chocolate is all smooth, you are good to go.
- Dip each strawberry into chocolate, following by coconut flakes or nuts.
- Let strawberries rest on a foam or a wooden rack. The wooden rack that I use, is a simple one we've made form a wooden block.
- This could be made into a beautiful Valentine's Day bouquet.

They are ssssooooo delicious, thank you for sharing this recipe !!
Hey Yana, I am so happy to hear that you loved them. Comments like this make me want to create more recipes. 🙂
Would butter work instead of shortening and is it necessary to add at all?
It's better to skip on butter. Shortening adds smoothness and a bit of shine to the chocolate.
Ok thanks
