Chocolate-covered strawberries

2 servings

30 minutes

All you need is two bars of chocolate, dark and white, a basket of fresh strawberries and a microwave. Melting chocolate in the microwave is a piece of cake, then all you have to do is dip the berries in it: first in one, then in the other, then a spectacular marble pattern will appear on the strawberries. This recipe uses freeze-dried raspberries, which can be easily bought on any marketplace, but if you want, you can replace them with coconut flakes or almond petals: they are even easier to find.
