I have alway felt that chocolate-covered strawberries are a classic signature of romance, especially the part where you feed it to your sweetie! I usually use very special, often expensive chocolate to make mine, but this time I had to settle for classic semi-sweet chocolate chips. I knew when I got, Oh, what kind of chocolate is *this*? from my BF, I knew the recipe was 'zaar worthy! Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips |
2 -4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream or 2 -4 tablespoons half-and-half |
1/4 cup kahlua (or to taste) |
2 lbs fresh strawberries or 2 lbs fruit, for dipping |
Directions:
1. In a double-boiler, completely melt chocolate until smooth consistency.
2. Grab your patience.Add cream or half-and-half and kahula and gradually incorporate.
3. Dip strawberries, generously coating each.
4. Gently lay on wax-lined trays.
5. Refrigerate for at least 20 minute.
6. Once cooled, gently place end of strawberry to SO's lips.
7. Observe smiles and repeat.
