To make chocolate-covered strawberries

Wash the strawberries and dry them completely before melting chocolates.

I have used a double boiler method for melting chocolate. Fill half pan with water and bring it to boil.

Cover it with another pan or bowl. Water should not touch this bowl. Put chocolate pieces in it. Let it simmer on medium heat for 2 minutes. Keep stirring.
As I had taken my chocolate out of the freezer it took some time to melt. If your chocolate is at room temperature switch off the flame immediately.

Melted chocolate is ready.

shift it to some deep bowl or glass so that dipping is easy.

You can insert a toothpick in strawberry. It makes it easy to hold the strawberry without getting messy.

Dip in chocolate.

Twist it so that an excess chocolate will fall back in the glass.

Set it on a butter paper to cool down. Sprinkle whatever decorations you want to sprinkle on strawberries. It is better to sprinkle than roll the strawberries as chocolate is still not set properly.
