Ingredients:
8 ounces white chocolate chips 1 tablespoon shortening 25 large strawberries with stems and leaves, chilled 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips 1 tablespoon shortening
Directions:
Heat the white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon shortening in a double boiler over hot water until smooth, stirring frequently. Keep warm.Dip each strawberry into the white chocolate to cover 3/4 of the strawberry. Arrange on a tray lined with waxed paper. Chill for 10 minutes. Heat the semisweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon shortening in a double boiler over hot water until smooth, stirring frequently. Keep warm. Dip one side of white chocolate-covered strawberries into the semisweet chocolate. Arrange on a tray lined with waxed paper. Chill until set. Repeat this process on the other side of the strawberries, forming a "V" shaped effect on the front of the strawberries. Chill until set. Dip the end of a wooden pick into the melted semi-sweet chocolate. Place three dots to represent buttons at the bottle of the V; now the strawberries are "dressed" for the event. Makes twenty-five strawberries.
