Chocolate Dipped Strawberries with Macadamia Nuts

NOTE: I substituted pineapple, which was OK, but strawberries are the way to go.
I shoulda listened to Lani!

DIRECTIONS

  • Heat about 2 inches of water in a saucepan on medium heat till it simmers.  Turn off the heat.

  • Place the chocolate in a heatproof medium bowl and set the bowl over the hot water in the saucepan and stir until melted and smooth - you could do this in the microwave as well!  

  • Remove the chocolate from heat and line a baking sheet with parchment paper

  • Hold the stems of the strawberries and start dipping to your heats content!

INGREDIENTS

  • 20 oz. or about 12 strawberries

  • About 8 oz. or little more than half the bag of chocolate chips (either milk or dark)

  • Your nut of choice, crushed
