White Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
This is very elegant and delicious!
1 quart fresh strawberries
1/2 pound fine quality white chocolate
Select perfect firm but ripe berries. Wash, drain and leave green hull on berries. Be sure berries are dry before dipping into chocolate.
Prepare white fine quality chocolate, by placing it in a glass measuring cup. Set cup in warm water in electric skillet. White chocolate melts very quickly. Do not overheat. Holding by stem end, very quickly dip each berry about halfway into the chocolate. Place on plate, chill immediately.
To serve: Fasten berries to a 12-inch foil covered cone with wooden picks. Start with largest berries at the bottom with chocolate tips pointing down. Fill in gaps with tiny pink ribbons.
