Not so Classic Chocolate Filled Strawberries

By charlotteh371

Ingredients

• 15-20 15-20
• strawberries (the larger the better)
• 1 1
• bag of Milk Chocolate chips (I use the 11.5 oz Guittard milk chocolate chips)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Cut the stems off your clean strawberries and carefully scoop out the top of the berry. The deeper you scoop the more chocolate it will hold. I used large strawberries so I scooped about an inch down.

2. Pour the entire bag of chocolate chips in a glass bowl and heat in the microwave for 30 second intervals. Make sure to take your bowl out every 30 seconds to stir the chips. Continue until all chips are melted.

3. Place your strawberries in an egg carton so they sit straight up. You
could also use little Dixie cups. Now you can either spoon your melted chocolate into the berries or use a funnel or piping bag. I used a little baby spoon and it worked fine. Your choice.

4. Place in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes until they harden a bit. Enjoy!

Note: Hi girls! As many of you have noted there is a small chance that salmonella could be found in an empty egg carton so always wash your egg carton with soap and hot water (and then dry) before you use it or simply use an ice cube tray or mini muffin tin to hold the berries while the chocolate hardens. I save all my egg cartons after I wash them because they come in pretty handy for organizing as well : )
