Description
Delicious strawberries encased in dark chocolate and filled with whipped cream, creating a decadent treat for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 large strawberries
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Melt the dark chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Dip the strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring complete coverage. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
- Chill until firm: Transfer the tray to the refrigerator and chill for about 15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
- Whip the cream: In a separate bowl, combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until soft peaks form.
- Create a filling opening: Cut a small opening at the top of each chilled strawberry, being careful not to pierce the chocolate.
- Fill with whipped cream: Fill each strawberry with the whipped cream mixture using a piping bag or spoon.
- Optional decoration: Drizzle melted chocolate over the tops for a decorative finish.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
Make ahead a few hours in advance; fill with whipped cream just before serving for optimal texture.
