Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Unfortunately I had to work Valentine's evening but when I got home my sweet hubby had an uber romantic evening planned. We started it off by making chocolate covered strawberries together.

We melted 3 squares of white chocolate with a Tablespoon of crisco to thin the chocolate for coating. If you had one of these handy dandy tiny tupperware containers that are useless for storing anything but happens to be perfect for dipping strawberries. It is important to lay the dipped on wax paper because if the chocolate hardens directly on the plate it will crack when you try to pick it up.

Leave a 1/4 C of the white chocolate in the pan throw in some dark chocolate chips and voila milk chocolate for drizzling purposes. Once melted together pour the chocolate into your average ziploc sandwich bag twist closed snip off the corner and drizzle away.

So Scrumptcious!!
