Halloween Chocolate Covered Strawberries - Cute Ghosts

Directions

1. Melt the white chocolate melts using a double boiler or microwave. For the double boiler, put the melts in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water and stir until smooth. For the microwave, heat the melts in a microwave-safe bowl for 1–2 minutes in 20-second bursts, stirring after each interval until fully melted and smooth.
2. Rinse the strawberries and pat them dry. Then dip each one into the melted white chocolate, leaving a small uncoated area at the bottom to create the ghost's base.
3. Place the coated strawberries on a platter lined with wax paper or parchment paper. Allow them to set at room temperature until firm. If the room is warmer than 70°F (20°C), refrigerate for 15–30 minutes.
4. Melt the dark chocolate melts using the same double boiler or microwave method.
5. Dip a toothpick into the melted dark chocolate.
6. Use the dark chocolate on the toothpick to draw ghostly eyes, a nose, and a mouth onto each strawberry.
7. Let the decorated strawberries sit at room temperature until the dark chocolate hardens. If the temperature is above 70°F (20°C), place them in the refrigerator for an additional 30 minutes.
8. Once both chocolates are fully set, your Halloween chocolate-covered strawberry ghosts are ready. Arrange them on a festive platter and serve at your Halloween party or as a fun snack. Watch as guests delight in these cute and tasty treats.
