Ingredients:
- 16 oz. package of strawberries (about 24)
- Any brand of Irish Cream (or any alcohol of your choice)
- 4 oz. of chocolate melting wafers (flavor is up to you!)
Supplies:
- Knife
- Wax paper
- Cutting board
- Melon baller or spoon
Electric chocolate melting pot or double boiler - If you do not have a double boiler or electric melting pot, no worries! All you will need is a small pot for the bottom, and a heat resistant bowl to fit over the top of the pot
Directions:
- Rinse strawberries well and lay them on paper towels to dry.
- In the meantime, start melting the chocolate in the double broiler or electric melting pot on low.
- Take your strawberries and cut off the top and bottom, ensuring that it can sit flat.
