Chocolate-covered strawberries feel like a special-occasion treat, but this version proves they're genuinely easy to pull off at home with just three core ingredients. The double-boiler method keeps the dairy free dark chocolate silky and smooth, and a small spoonful of coconut oil gives it that glossy, snappy finish you'd expect from a fancy chocolate shop. Because the recipe relies entirely on fresh fruit, good-quality dark chocolate, and coconut oil, there's nothing hidden to worry about ā no citrus extracts, no flavored coatings, no mystery additives that often sneak into store-bought versions. Drying the strawberries thoroughly before dipping is the one step that makes or breaks the whole thing, so don't skip it. A pinch of flaky sea salt on top while the chocolate is still wet takes these from simple to genuinely impressive. They need about 30 minutes in the fridge to set, which makes them a great make-ahead dessert for a dinner party or a quiet night in.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it near your work area. Make sure the strawberries are completely dry ā any moisture will cause the chocolate to seize.
Fill a small saucepan with about 1 inch of water and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Place a heatproof bowl over the saucepan, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Add the chopped dairy free dark chocolate and coconut oil to the bowl.
