Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

I had seen these chocolate dipped Strawberries at My Kitchen Treasures, and wanted to try it very badly :) .They didn't turn out as neat as I had expected :( But what really matters is, they were yummy and were gone within few minutes. My 2 1/2 year old son was soo happy and delighted to see these chocolate-dipped strawberries and now everyday he keeps me asking ''Mommy can you make more 'chookate chawberries'' . This is so easy to prepare and perfect to serve the family as a dessert after any meal.

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED STRAWBERRIES
recipe from My Kitchen treasures.

Ingredients:
24 ripe strawberries
8 oz bittersweet chocolate- chopped and
1 oz white chocolate- chopped


Method:
Rinse strawberries and gently pat dry. Set on a rack to dry completely. Melt bittersweet chocolate in a double boiler or in a microwave.keep stirring in between to prevent the chocolate from burning.

Dip strawberries in chocolate and shake off excess. Set to dry on a rack (on the tops as shown in the photos) or on parchment (on the bottoms which will give you a foot of chocolate) in a cool, dry location
.
When chocolate has dried, melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the strawberries.

Note:
If in a hurry, one can put the chocolate dipped strawberries in the refrigerator for quick drying instead of drying them on the rack.
