Advent Calendar Day 22 – Festive Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries

Two Ingredients, Big Romance Energy

Day 22 is all about keeping things simple, sweet, and just a little bit indulgent. Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries are a classic for a reason—they’re juicy, rich, and feel wildly luxurious for something that takes about ten minutes to make.

This is the dessert you make when you want to feel fancy without actually doing anything fancy. Perfect for warm December evenings, sharing with friends, or enjoying solo while pretending you’re in a movie montage where everything is softly lit and vaguely romantic.🎄


⭐ Why These Never Fail

  • Only two main ingredients
  • Naturally festive and elegant
  • No baking required
  • Perfect portion control (or not—no judgement)
  • Easy to scale up for guests or gifts

🍓 Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 250g fresh strawberries
  • 150g dark, milk, or white chocolate
  • Optional toppings: crushed nuts, coconut, sprinkles, sea salt

🔥 How to Make Them

  1. Wash strawberries and dry thoroughly (very important for good chocolate adhesion).
  2. Melt chocolate gently in the microwave or over a double boiler.
  3. Dip each strawberry into chocolate, letting excess drip off.
  4. Place on baking paper and sprinkle toppings if using.
  5. Chill for 10–15 minutes until set.

For one: Use a small handful of strawberries and about 40g chocolate.
For gifts: Double the recipe and arrange in a lined box once set.
