Description:
Take a bite into creamy thick chocolate and juicy strawberries. Yummy!

Preparation Time:
30 minutes

Servings:
15-20 strawberries

Ingredients:

1-1 ½ cups (6-9 ounces) semisweet chocolate morsels
½ cup (3 ounces) white chocolate morsels
1 pound strawberries (about 20) with stems
1 teaspoon heavy cream

Directions:

Put the semisweet chocolate morsels and the white chocolate morsels into 2 separate heatproof bowls. Fill 2 saucepans with water and bring to a simmer/low boil over medium heat. Put the bowls of chocolate over the water to melt the chocolate making sure that the bottom of the bowl is making contact with the water. Stir until chocolate melts and becomes smooth.
An alternative way is to first put the morsels into microwave safe bowls and microwave at half power for 1 minute. Then stir and microwave again until chocolate melts.

Pour the heavy cream into the white chocolate morsels to help melt the white chocolate until smooth and creamy. Stir until white chocolate melts and becomes smooth.

Line a sheet pan with parchment or waxed paper. Wash and dry the strawberries well. Dip a strawberry while holding the stem into the semisweet chocolate, lift and twist slightly, and set on the sheet pan. Repeat until all strawberries have been dipped into the semisweet chocolate.

Dip a fork into the white chocolate and drizzle on top of the dipped strawberries. Set aside in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes until chocolate sets and becomes firm. Serve cold. Enjoy!

Description :

Take a bite into crunchy, fried dough and warm, oozing chocolate with sweet strawberries just as it melts into your mouth. Enjoy a super easy and quick dessert! Can it get any better?

Preparation Time :

15 minutes

Servings :

10 raviolis

Ingredients :

10 wonton wrappers
10 teaspoons chocolate hazelnut spread (recommended Nutella)
5-7 strawberries
3 tablespoons lukewarm water
Vegetable oil for frying
Powdered sugar for dusting

Directions :

Fill oil in a deep saucepan and heat over medium-high heat.

Chop strawberries into small pieces.

Place wonton wrapper on work surface and place 1 teaspoon of the chocolate hazelnut spread. Top with 1-2 teaspoons of the strawberry pieces. Do not overfill wonton, as ravioli will break.

Lightly brush the edges with the water. Fold one corner of the wonton over the filling to form a triangle with the opposite corner. Close the ravioli using your fingers to press down and seal.

Fry ravioli in the hot oil, 3-4 at a time, once golden, for about 45 to 60 seconds. Turn ravioli occasionally in oil when frying.

Place on a plate covered with a paper towel to drain off excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar and serve while still warm.

Optional (drizzle with melted chocolate and serve with vanilla ice-cream)

Enjoy!
