Ingredients
- 12 oz bag of white chocolate candy melts*
- 2 lbs strawberries 32 oz, at room temperature
- Sprinkles optional
- Other colored candy melts optional- for drizzle
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Rinse and dry the strawberries completly, removing any that aren’t good. Water isn’t good for any type of chocolate so make sure to dry all of it off.2 lbs strawberries
- In a microwave safe dish melt your chocolate candy melts. Make sure to turn your microwave to 50% power, microwave for 30 secs, stir and repeat until melted. This will take around 1-2 minutes.12 oz bag of white chocolate candy melts*
- Dip your strawberries in the melted white chocolate. It helps to hold the strawberry by the green leaves, dip and swirl. Let any excess white chocolate drip off and you can even scrape the bottom side (the side that will be sitting on the parchment paper) on the edge of the bowl.
- Place strawberries on prepared baking sheet and allow to set up. If you are putting sprinkles on you can sprinkle them on now- before the white chocolate hardens.Sprinkles
- If you want to drizzle with chocolate or colored candy melts, allow the dipped strawberries to set up, melt your candy melts in the same way you melted the white chocolate candy melts. Then place the melted candy melts in a piping bag or a zip loc bag and cut the tip off to make a small hole. Then drizzle the strawberries.Other colored candy melts

Notes
Tips and Tricks
- *I used Wilton candy melts- regular white, but bright white can be used too.
- If you want to use white chocolate chips, you must temper the chocolate so that it will set hard after melting.
- Turning the power on the microwave to 50% will help prevent the candy melts from seizing/burning.
- Additional toppings, such as crushed Oreos, crushed M&Ms, chopped peanuts, and toasted coconut, are also tasty.
- Storing: Store in an airtight container for two days. They will last up to 4-5 days refrigerated but are the best and freshest when eaten within 48 hrs.
