Notes
REMEMBERRR! Here are a few tips to make this snack more enjoyable
Use good quality dark chocolate.
Since this recipe has very few ingredients, the flavor of the chocolate really matters. A 70% dark chocolate gives the best balance with the strawberries. Do not skip the coconut oil.
Even a small amount helps the chocolate melt smoothly and set properly once frozen. Without it, the chocolate can be harder to spread and break unevenly. Freeze until fully set.
Make sure the chocolate is completely firm before breaking it into chips. If it’s still soft, it will bend instead of snapping. Chop the strawberries finely.
Smaller pieces release just enough juice to create a salsa without becoming watery. Adjust sweetness to taste.
Strawberries vary a lot in sweetness. Start with less honey and sugar, then adjust as needed. Serve cold.
The contrast between cold chocolate and fresh strawberries is what makes this snack work.
