Time 45m

Yield 24-28 strawberries, 12-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb fresh strawberries
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I use Guirardelli)
1/2 teaspoon espresso powder (or more-to taste)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (or more-to taste)

Steps:

  • Wash and dry your strawberries keeping the green tops on.
  • Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over a low simmer.
  • Stir in the espresso powder and cinnamon. Mix well.
  • When melted, remove the chocolate from the heat.
  • When chocolate is cool to the touch, dip strawberry tips in halfway up the strawberry.
  • Rest each strawberry on a plate then chill in the fridge allowing the chocolate to harden. (I usually set the strawberries upside down on the green stem part--they will stay in place up against the plates' edge).
  • Allow to chill about 30 minutes or more then serve!
