Directions
Lighter Chocolate Covered Strawberries,used to always make these with shortening and milk chocolate but I found a lighter version using Canola Oil(rich in monounsaturated fats)instead of shortening(mostly saturated fat) and when I made these for New Years Eve not only are they lower in fat but I think the dark chocolate(also lower in fat) really better enhances the flavor of the strawberries. I came across this while searching for appetizer’s for guests watching their weight. My guest’s have yet to try them but I have sampled one and they are fabulous!Great to serve during the Holidays, at Showers, or Wedding.,excellent……,I always used butter for my chocolate covered strawberries, so this was a nice change and so quick to put together! used mint chocolate chips and they worked wonderfully, and the mintiness is just as refreshing as the strawberry! The chocolate didn’t come out glossy for me, but I think that just depends on the chocolate. (I think my chips were a little older anyway) Still very pretty and very tasty! Thanks!
