Valentine's Day Dipped Chocolate Strawberries

Valentine's Day dipped chocolate strawberries are a family tradition at my house.  My kids love dipping the fresh strawberries into the rich dark chocolate.  Try it with your kids tonight and have a delicious treat for Valentine's day.

Valentine's Day Dipped Chocolate Strawberries:
Serving size:  4

12 large whole strawberries, washed and dried
1 cup dark chocolate chips (like Ghirardelli double chocolate bittersweet)

1.  Wash and dry the fresh strawberries.  In a microwaveable bowl, place the chocolate chips and heat on high for 1 minute in the microwave.  Stir the chocolate chips with a spoon.  Place the chocolate chips back into the microwave and heat for 1 more minute.  All the chocolate chips should be melted if not put them back in for 30 seconds more. 

2.  Dipp the strawberries into the melted chocolate coating the sides of the strawberries about half way.  Allow the strawberries to cool on a piece of waxed paper for 10 minutes or until the chocolate has set.
