Instructions
First, wash and dry your strawberries.
Pour your chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl.
Change your microwave's power to 400, and place the chocolate chips inside for 30 seconds.After the time, stir the chocolate chips in the bowl.Repeat until you have soft, melted chocolate.
Place a sheet of wax paper on top of a baking sheet or plate.
Holding the strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted chocolate. Swirl it around until ¾ of the berry is covered and then place it on your wax paper.
If you would like, now is the time to add any other toppings like sprinkles, chopped nuts, or crushed candy. Let the strawberries rest as the chocolate hardens. If you would like, you can speed up this process by placing the baking sheet in the refrigerator.
