How to Make Chocolate Dipped Strawberries Recipe (V, GF): learn how easy it is to make beautiful, decadently delicious chocolate dipped strawberries with just 2 ingredients! Vegan, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Paleo. Plus, a video!
First there was 5 minute homemade fudge, and then there was this how to make chocolate dipped strawberries recipe!! Wait a minute, was that a sentence?? Eh, whatever!
Are we celebrating Valentine’s Day like it’s nobody’s business this year or what? 😉 (Are we also creatively restructuring sentences like it’s nobody’s business or what?? <– Benefit of owning my blog, beezies! Who am I calling beezies??)
Back on point… of course, there were still some less decadent treats to keep our healthy snack vibes going. Did you try my Homemade Chunky Paleo Granola with Clusters? One of my absolute faves right now, but so not the theme of today/beginning of February, which is: CHOCOLATE!!
Have you ever learned how to make chocolate dipped strawberries? If so, did you make them with dark chocolate, white chocolate, or even… oooooh, strawberry chocolate? Strawberry on Strawberry vibes sound incredible!
When I started working on this recipe—I know, how dare I even call it that with just 2 ingredients involved—I thought I was gonna to go all out on decorating these babies: crushed almonds, sprinkles, strawberry-flavored drizzle. But as I was making them, I realized that these strawberries needed no further sassing up.
Okay, alright, I’ll admit it, I couldn’t help myself from getting my drizzle game on (like, have you seen the drizzle on these: paleo chocolate coconut truffles, vegan chocolate peanut butter truffles, dark chocolate sea salt kind bars). And I felt like some fancy pro chocolatier drizzling these chocolate dipped strawberries. Still though, the beauty of these just speak for themselves.
Don’t you want to just dive in and grab one/ALL of these?
The best part: they’re SO easy to make! Okaaaaay, not as easy as let’s say, spreading almond butter on toast, but still easy! Probably the most tedious part is washing and fully drying the strawberries.
Which, let’s face it, I handed over to Erik. ????
Afterward, all you have to do is line a baking sheet or plate with wax paper. Then, melt the chocolate and dip! The rest is up to you—whether you want to drizzle, top, or even glitter (!!) these. It’s all up to you as you learn how to make chocolate dipped strawberries! Allow them to set afterward at room temperature, or give them a quick boost in the fridge. I prefer letting them set at room temp.

You just can’t go wrong with chocolate dipped strawberries – though believe it or not — I’ve never done it. I will rectify that oversight — and I’m going all out with that drizzle too.

Strawberries covered in strawberry chocolate, that’s just insane! Wait….or maybe it’s the most genious thing EVER?! Hahahaa love your way of thinking Demeter! These chocolate covered strawberries look gorgeous! Those drizzles are true perfection though. Did you use a piping bag?
Haha. Right?? Wouldn’t that be grand? 🙂 Thanks so much, Natanja! I used a zip bag and just snipped the end off. 🙂

Hi Jay! Enjoy Life makes some great ones that fit the bill. 🙂

What kind of chocolate did you use? It looks like milk chocolate. Thanks.
Hi Bonnie! For this shoot, I used Guittard semi-sweet chocolate chips. Accidentally vegan, as it were! 😉 But try Enjoy Life or another dairy-free brand if you’re looking for allergy-friendly or paleo chocolate.
Do you recommend to add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil?
