chocolate-covered strawberries

Written By Bella Kalkbrenner

These chocolate-covered strawberries are a delicious and simple-to-make sweet treat! I use a homemade dark chocolate hard shell with maca for added nutrients. I love making my own chocolate because it is fun and super easy!

Ingredients:

  • around one package of strawberries

  • 1/4 cup raw cacao powder

  • 1 1/2 tbsp coconut oil (measured when solid)

  • 1 tbsp raw honey

  • optional - 2 tsp maca root powder

  • one tsp ceylon cinnamon

*can sub honey and cacao powder for 1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Method:

  • wash your strawberries, pat them dry, and space them out on a plate or sheet pan lined with parchment paper or wax paper

  • in a small saucepan, add coconut oil and turn the heat to extra low

  • as coconut oil turns liquid, add cacao powder, maca powder, and cinnamon. Stir slowly as chocolate sauce begins to form, then slowly add and mix in honey

    • if you are using chocolate chips, add chocolate chips and maca and mix until chocolate sauce forms

  • drizzle chocolate sauce over strawberries and place in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes until the chocolate has hardened
