Chocolate Covered Strawberries in an Ice Cube Tray

Chocolate covered strawberries are fabulous any time of year. Is it cold and wintery outside? Have a chocolate covered strawberry by the fire! Celebrating fireworks during the summer? Don’t forget the chocolate covered strawberries!

Whether it’s a birthday or Valentine’s Day, strawberries and chocolate always fit the bill!

Now, I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but buying pre-made chocolate covered strawberries can be VERY pricey! Everybody loves them and they’re very special, that’s why.

After today you will never look at chocolate covered strawberries the same way again. They don’t have to be fancy and perfect. In fact, the more imperfectly perfect they are… the better!

This recipe makes 16 chocolate covered strawberries for less than $5. So smart!

Ingredients:

1. Strawberries

2. Chocolate

3. An ice cube tray!

I know that you can melt chocolate the fancy way, but my favoirte way is to use these Dove chocolates. I don’t know how I found out that they melt so easily, but at some point in time I discovered that they do and it’s changed the way I melt chocolate. Using a plastic or microwave safe container and Dove chocolate, you can make the BEST melted chocolate ever! Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, whatever you prefer.

I got this bag in the candy isle at Walmart for about $3.50. For this recipe, you will need the entire bag.

Watch how they are made!
