Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

My two favorite ingredients in the same recipe! The chocolate dipped strawberries are best if eaten within 24 hours – refrigerate for longer storage, but serve at room temperature for greatest flavor. Mine lasts only for 1 day! 18-20 large fresh strawberries, with stems left intact 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips 3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips Line a baking sheet or cookie pan with waxed paper. Wash the strawberries and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels; set aside....
