Notes Use any kind of chocolate you prefer, whether it is bittersweet, semi-sweet, milk, dark or white. We like to use chips because they melt quickly and evenly, but chopped chocolate or chunks work well too. It's worth it to use good quality chocolate with the fewest ingredients, though you don't need to splurge for the fanciest stuff. To make vegan chocolate covered strawberries, just make sure to use dairy-free chocolate (most dark chocolate works but check the ingredients). Ingredients 1 (10-ounce) bag chocolate chips, or chocolate of your choice (about 1 3/4 cups) 2 Tablespoons coconut oil (optional) Sprinkles, finely crushed cookies, chopped nuts, shredded coconut etc. (optional)
