To start the night off, we would meet up at somebodies house to start the festivities. One would turn the music up, the other would bring the alcohol, and I would provide the chocolate covered strawberry's. We would have some laughs, eat some delicious juicy chocolate strawberry's with a glass of wine or campaign and all while walking around the house half-naked trying to get dressed! These are the times I will cherish always. When I didn't have enough strength to leave, they provided me an outlet to help me to just get through to the next day.
This recipe for simple dipping dark chocolate and white chocolate is my favorite. First you will need to start of by picking out some very good size strawberries. I love going to my local Farmer's Market for the best strawberry's. If strawberry's are out of season, then the local grocery store should have a good selection. Make sure that they are of good size and none of them have any mold or soft spots. You will need to wash them in cold water and lay them out on a paper towel to dry. Enjoy.
Dark Chocolate Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup Water
1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
2-3 Tbsp Hershey's Baking Cocoa
1 candy bar Hershey's Chocolate
First break up the Hershey's candy bar into small to medium size pieces. Next bring the water to a boil and add the sugar, while stirring constantly. Take pot off of heat and add in cocoa,then stir in candy bar a little bit at a time. While hot put mixture in a glass or stainless steel bowl and dip strawberries immediately and lay covered strawberry's out on wax or parchment paper and refrigerate.
*To make white chocolate dipping sauce follow same recipe as above, but use a white chocolate candy bar and omit the cocoa.
To create the swirls, put some left over sauce in a squeeze bottle or dip a toothpick in the sauce and drizzle or strawberry.
