Chocolate stimulates your endorphins and gives you a similar pleasure sensation as you would get when being hugged. No wonder everyone loves chocolate!!

Hi, can I use semi-sweet chocolate chips for this recipe?
Oh these are just gorgeous! They look so mouthwateringly delicious and what a simple recipe. Can't wait to try these out. Have to get one before the Hubby and kids eat them all though!
Can i do that with bananas instead? thx
you have to make sure they are dry and room temperature. before you dip in chocolate.
If you put in fridge to harden make sure you take them out after 10 minutes..
I wanted to make these for V-Day tomorrow, are they okay to store over night in the refrigerator?
Made these tonight…the perfect treat, just the right amount of sweetness. I rolled one of my chocolate covered strawberries in a few sliced almonds..tasty!
When I make chocolate covered strawberries, I always find my strawberries turn runny. I don't know how to describes. It's like there is a moisture between the strawberry and the chocolate. I have tried each individually, or even washing them and spreading them out to dry over night. Is it because I keep my strawberries in the refridgerator and then are cold when I use them. That's the only thing I can think of. Any one have any suggestions?
Instead of getting the semi chocolate i am going to use my Chocolate Fondue warmer that scentsy has just came out with!:) The belgium chocolate is gluten free and its so good! The warmer melts the chocolate for you just like a regular scentsy warmer! if your interested in more information about it then please feel free to visit my site at www.bridgetehedge.velata.us 🙂 Can't wait to have some chocolate covered strawberries!!! 🙂 Yummy!!
I made these for my Book Group last night and they were so impressed. The best part was they were so easy and elegant!
Perfect for Valentine's Day! Better than buying them too!
@ Missy, so romantic for you & hubby! Congrats on 16 yrs and Happy Anniversary!
I know, too easy! You're welcome!
I got home last and tired on Valentine's Day and this recipe saved the day! It was way too easy, not to mention yummy. Thank you, Gina, for the work you do!
LUV these, I have been making them for years…now I make them just for Valentine's week for my husband & the GWWomen's meeting!!!
I made these yesterday for our anniversary and they were wonderful and really easy. Thanks!

You're welcome!

Hi Gina,
How do I contact you? There is something on your "Legal" page that I don't understand.
Thanks
1 pt per strawberry.
hiya is it 1 point per strawberry with the chocolate or the four strawberries for 1 point lol
How fun to enjoy chocolate covered strawberries on a diet!
I've got a chocolate fondue set that I use for this very purpose. Bananas also taste great covered in chocolate…but then again so do most things I guess!
@Missy- WOW! That's truly a special date for you!
@FoodieGirl- Chocolate covered jalapenos? I can't quite picture that! I've had chocolate covered pretzels, marshmellows, bananas even! I guess you can cover anything in chocolate and it would taste good 🙂
@WeightWatcherPoints- Isn't it nice to be reminded?
@Paulette- Your welcome, thanks for realizing how much work it is!
I think I want to make more now that I'm reading all these comments!
Beautiful! One of my favorite low point treats for Valentine's and they are so easy to make 😀 I think I NEED to make some now that I saw yours 🙂
i always give B a box of strawberries covered in chocolate and i do it even with milk chocolate and nuts as well ..it looks and tastes delicious..perfect for valentines 🙂
I just found your site and so so happy! Love the pictures and variety. I've already emailed to three friends and will tell more for sure. Thank you so much for the time it must take to do this. I just started WW last week so you are a God send!! Thanks again. Paulette
Hey this will work for my Weight Watchers points diet I know its simple but you just forget food like this and I really like the Dark Semi sweet chocolate
I work in the grocery business and they are telling us there is going to be a shortage on strawberries for Valentine's Day. Which sucks since they are my favorites.
Here's a good one to try. Chocolate covered jalapenos. Weird, but soo good. Spicy chocolate!
Thank you Gina. It truly is a romantic wedding date. It's also our last childs birthday. She will be turning 10 this year. I think it was fate when we decided we were done having children and she came to us on our 6th Anniversary.
Yes, 1 pt of Bliss!!
@Missy- what a romantic wedding date!
I love the combination of chocolate and strawberries. They look so festive.
wow, this is so cute and yummy..perfect for our loved ones.
yep it is about time for me to make those again…make them each year on our anniversary! 🙂
I think I am going to make these for my hubby as Valentines day is the day we were married. This year we celebrate 16 years together.
Just beautiful!
Great idea! 1pt of bliss!
What a perfect treat for your sweetheart. They look so pretty!
