Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Cooking With Kids: Valentine's Day

When I think of Valentine's Day I always think of chocolate covered strawberries. There are few treats as delicious as chocolate covered fruits. I found Dolci Frutta Hard Chocolate Shell at the grocery store in the produce aisle and the kids and I made these chocolate covered strawberries in less than ten-minutes. I store them in an air tight container in the fridge so the chocolate doesn't melt. Here's what to do:

You Will Need:

Strawberries (bananas, cherries or any other fruit)
Dolci Frutta Hard Chocolate Shell
Waxed paper

What To Do:

1. Wash and dry the fruit. Remove the lid and seal from the Dolci frutta cup.
2. Microwave the chocolate in the container at 1/2 power (medium heat).
3. Stir at 30 second intervals during microwaving until fully melted and smooth. The chocolate wafers will retain their shape until stirred.
4. Dip fruit by the stem or with fork and cool on waxed paper until hardened.
