Ingredients:
- Fresh strawberries (large)
- Melting chocolate (dark, milk, or white)
- Sprinkles, crushed nuts, or shredded coconut (optional)
- Lollipop sticks or skewers
Instructions:
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly. Cut off the tops and slice each strawberry in half. Arrange the halves into a heart shape with the flat sides touching.
- Insert Sticks: Gently insert a lollipop stick or skewer through the center to secure the heart shape.
- Melt Chocolate: Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Dip & Decorate: Dip each strawberry heart pop into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings while the chocolate is still wet.
- Set: Place the pops on parchment paper and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens.
- Serve: Share these adorable treats with your Valentine!
