CHOCOLATE DIPPED STRAWBERRIES:
* A favorite for any romantic occasion
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
1 tbs. shortening
2 pints Fresh Strawberries, rinsed and patted dry
Cover tray with wax paper. Place chocolate chips and
shortening in medium microwave safe bowl. Microwave at
high (100%) for 1 minute and stir. If necessary, micro-
wave additional 30 seconds or until chips are melted and
mixture becomes smooth when stirred vigorously. DO NOT
overheat! Holding by the top, dip bottom two-thirds of
each strawberry into melted mixture. Shake gently to
remove excess. Place on tray covered with waxed paper.
Cover and refrigerate until coating is firm, about 1 hour.
For best results, use within 24 hours.
