Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ripe strawberries, hulled
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or melting wafers
- Chocolate chips or edible black eyes for decoration
- Optional: a few drops of black food coloring for extra spooky effect
Instructions
- Start by rinsing the strawberries thoroughly and removing the green stems. Pat dry completely.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Add black food coloring if desired.
- Dip each strawberry into the melted white chocolate, covering most of the berry but leaving the green top visible. Use a fork or skewers for even coating. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
- While the white chocolate is still warm, create criss-cross stripes over the strawberries with a fork or piping bag to mimic mummy bandages.
- Add a chocolate chip or edible eye in the center of each strawberry for a spooky look.
- Allow the strawberries to sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes until the chocolate sets.
Notes
- Use dairy-free white chocolate for vegan or dairy-free options.
- Ensure strawberries are dry before dipping to avoid excess moisture.
- Decorate just before serving for the best visual effect.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
