Soy (in some dairy-free whipped cream)

Ingredients

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled 1 cup dairy
free dark chocolate chips 1/4 cup coconut oil Pinch of sea salt 1/2 cup dairy
free whipped cream (store bought or homemade) Edible gold dust, optional

Instructions

Start by preparing your workstation with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper on a flat surface. In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together until smooth. Once the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, stir in a pinch of sea salt to enhance the flavor. Next, dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate mixture using a skewer or fork, ensuring that about two thirds of the fruit is covered. Gently tap off any excess chocolate and place the dipped strawberries onto your prepared surface. If using edible gold dust, sprinkle it lightly over the tops of the strawberries while the chocolate is still wet. Once all the strawberries are dipped and decorated, place them in the freezer for at least 20 minutes or until set. Serve with a dollop of dairy free whipped cream on the side for an extra touch of indulgence.
