Our easy chocolate covered strawberries recipe lets you choose your preferred HERSHEY’S Chocolate chips. The key in how to make chocolate covered strawberries is to allow each piece of fruit to fully dry before dipping. This helps avoid getting water in your melted chocolate and lessens moisture between the fruit and chocolate coating. Try decorating your chocolate covered strawberries with sprinkles or add a drizzle melted peanut butter and white crème. If you’re feeling crafty, grab some wooden skewers and make a chocolate covered strawberries bouquet. No matter the occasion, HERSHEY’S chocolate covered strawberries are guaranteed to impress.
