Chocolate-covered strawberries are one of those treats that feel indulgent and special, yet come together with just a handful of ingredients and almost no effort. The secret to that glossy, snappy shell is a double boiler method that melts dairy free dark chocolate with a touch of coconut oil into something impossibly smooth and dippable. Patting the strawberries completely dry before dipping is the one step you absolutely cannot skip ā moisture is the enemy of a clean chocolate coat, and the recipe makes sure you know it. A pinch of flaky sea salt on top while the chocolate is still wet takes these from simple to genuinely impressive. Because the ingredient list is so short and straightforward, there's no need to scrutinize labels for hidden dairy derivatives or worry about what's lurking in a store-bought box of chocolate-dipped fruit. These are naturally free of eggs as well, making them a crowd-pleasing dessert that works for a wide range of guests without any substitutions or workarounds. Pop them in the fridge for half an hour and you've got a stunning, shareable treat that looks like it came from a fancy confectionery.

Rinse the strawberries under cold water and pat them completely dry with paper towels ā any moisture on the surface will cause the chocolate to seize. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it nearby.
Fill a small saucepan with about 1 inch of water and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Set 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.
