Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

Happy Valentine's Day! If you're looking for a last-minute treat, how about romantic Chocolate-Covered Strawberries? They're one of the simplest candies to make, so there's no excuse not to wow your valentine with some chocolate-covered bliss. Seriously, if you can press the "start" button on your microwave, you can make these. Figuring out how to uncork the champagne bottle is totally up to you, though.

If you're ready to branch out a little more and stretch your chocolate-covered wings, try this recipe for Marbled Strawberries. The concept is the same, only instead of dipping the strawberries in plain chocolate, you first swirl together a mix of white and dark chocolates, and then dip. Brilliant!

But maybe you have a formal occasion to attend, and nothing but the most smartly dressed candies will do. Then may I suggest Tuxedo Strawberries? Wearing their Sunday best, these dark and white chocolate-covered berries look completely adorable grouped together on a serving platter. Just make sure they're not out-dressing you when you present them to your beloved.
