Chocolate coated strawberries (delicious)

4-5 Servings ~ 10 minutes
  • 400 g fresh strawberries
  • 150 g Pascall cooking chocolate
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil (optional)

The Pascall range of chocolates is absolutely great and versatile. Here I’ve used the Pascall cooking chocolate to turn these strawberries into a lovely dessert or snack. Strawberries are loaded with high nutritional benefits ranging from the good health of your eyes, skin and even brain. This here is a quick way to eat them as a snack or dessert served with ice-cream. You can even prepare these way ahead of time. Just make sure to keep them in a cool place just as the refrigerator so that the chocolate does not melt.

Equipment

  • Saucepan/ Small pot
  • Heatproof bowl
  • Spatula
  • Chopping board
  • Sharp knife
  • Baking paper
  • Tray

Quick Instructions

  1. Get your ingredients together. These include; 400 g fresh strawberries
    150 g Pascall cooking chocolate
    2 tsp vegetable oil (optional)
  2. Wash strawberries and pat dry. Set-aside.
  3. Place 100 g of the chopped chocolate into the heatproof bowl and set aside.
  4. Put water into the saucepan or small pot. Filling it up half way. Bring water to a simmer then place the bowl on top of the pot. (We’re doing this so the steam can melt the chocolate.)
  5. Stir with the spatula until chocolate has melted completely. Remove from heat and add the remaining 50 g of melted chocolate. Stir vigorously until it has melted and the chocolate is nice and smooth and no streaks are showing. You may add the 2 tsp of vegetable oil to slightly thin the chocolate if it appears to be too thick.
  6. Line the tray with baking paper.
  7. Take set-aside strawberries and roll each one three quarters of the way through, the pointed-end down. Place in prepared tray. Drizzle any random design you like on each strawberry or you can leave them as is with just the first coating.
  8. Refrigerate for a minimum 10 minutes or until required.
  9. Your snack/dessert is ready!
