- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 5 minutes
- Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
Scale
- 15–20 fresh strawberries
- 1 cup Wilton’s White Chocolate Discs
- 1/3 cup Wilton’s Chocolate Discs (pink, yellow, teal, orange, or your favorite colors)
- Assorted Easter sprinkles (pastel colors work best!)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chocolate:
Place each color of chocolate in separate microwave-safe bowls. Melt the chocolate according to the package instructions, stirring every 30 seconds to avoid burning. - Dry the Strawberries:
Wash the strawberries thoroughly and pat them completely dry with a paper towel. Any moisture will cause the chocolate to seize. - Dip the Strawberries:
- Dip one strawberry into the white chocolate, coating it about halfway. Let the excess chocolate drip off, then place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- For a festive touch, drizzle melted colored chocolate over the white chocolate-dipped strawberries using a spoon or piping bag.
- Alternatively, dip another strawberry into the white chocolate and immediately add Easter sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
- Let Them Set:
Allow the chocolate to harden completely at room temperature or place the tray in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes to speed up the process. - Serve and Enjoy:
Arrange the strawberries on a platter and watch them disappear! These are best enjoyed the same day but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
Notes
- Use fresh, firm strawberries for the best results.
- Make sure the strawberries are completely dry before dipping to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
- If you don’t have Wilton’s chocolate discs, you can use any high-quality melting chocolate.
- Get creative with decorations! Use pastel-colored sprinkles, mini eggs, or edible glitter for extra Easter flair.
- Work quickly when adding sprinkles, as the chocolate hardens fast.
