Light some candles, turn the music low, and prepare for a moment of chocolate bliss when you bite into our melt-in-your-mouth Boozy Chocolate-Covered Strawberries. Regular strawberries are romantic and all, but these sweet treats are the ultimate in temptation.
Boozy Chocolate Strawberries
Ingredients
1 cup strawberries
2 cups alcohol of your choice
3.5 oz. dark (72% cacao) chocolate, finely chopped
Preparation
1. Rinse the strawberries and place them in a 16-ounce mason jar.
2. Leave the berries in the refrigerator to soak overnight, or for 12 hours.
3. Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at 20% power for 15 seconds; remove bowl from microwave, and stir. Repeat procedure about 4 or 5 times, microwaving and stirring until most of chocolate has melted. Let stand 1 minute or until chocolate is thoroughly melted and smooth, stirring occasionally.
4. Pat dry your strawberries, dip them into the chocolate and swirl to ensure an even, silky coat.
5. To speed up the drying time, refrigerate for about 10 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
5. If there are any leftovers (HA!), store in an airtight container and keep in the fridge up to 3 days.
