Ingredients

  • 6 oz white chocolate chips or candy melts about 1 cup
  • 20 strawberries washed and dried fully
  • Shortening optional
  • Candy eyes

Instructions

  • Line a workstation with parchment to help prep for your strawberry Mummies.
  • Place the chocolate in a microwave safe container. Heat on the defrost setting for 1 minute. Stir well. If any additional pieces of chocolate remain, heat an additional 15 to 30 seconds, being careful not to overheat. Add a teaspoon or two of shortening, if needed, to slightly thin the chocolate if you find it to be too thick.
  • Holding the berry by the top or stem, dip into the melted chocolate. Lift and twist slightly to allow the excess chocolate to fall back into the cup or bowl.
  • Set onto the prepared parchment paper and immediately add two candy eyes.
  • Repeat with the remaining fruit.
  • Add 1/2 cup white chocolate and 1 teaspoon shortening to a small zip top bag. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds on the defrost setting, adding additional time if needed to fully melt the candy.
  • Snip the corner of the bag with clean scissors.
  • Drizzle the melted white chocolate back and forth over each berry to create the mummy wrap.
  • Let the berries set for 5 minutes and enjoy.

Notes

  • Looking for more halloween strawberry ideas? You can always skip the “wrap” and call these cuties ghosts!
  • Chocolate too thick? Add a bit of shortening to thin it.
  • Having a hard time holding on to the berry when dipping? Add a toothpick to the top (right through the green part) and hold it while placing the berry into the chocolate.
