Here’s a delicious and easy recipe for Keto Chocolate-Covered Strawberries—a perfect low-carb treat for any occasion!
Servings: 12 strawberries
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients
- 12 large fresh strawberries
- 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoothness)
- Sea salt or crushed nuts for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Wash the strawberries and dry them thoroughly with a paper towel. Ensure they are completely dry, as water can prevent the chocolate from adhering properly.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
- Dip Strawberries: Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip it into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off. Place the chocolate-covered strawberry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle sea salt or crushed nuts over the chocolate before it sets.
- Chill: Refrigerate the strawberries for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
- Serve: Once set, serve the chocolate-covered strawberries chilled or at room temperature.
