Chocolate covered strawberries are easy, fast, and never fail to delight. Get some melting chocolate from the baking aisle, melt it slowly so you don’t burn it. Like 60% microwave power in 30 second increments. Dip berries and let them set for about 10 minutes on parchment paper. Don’t refrigerate.
I used the microwave this morning and it worked great. I promised fast and easy, but feel free to work slower and steadier. It’s easy to burn in the microwave, for sure. Don’t heat it until it’s melted, heat it until it’s melty and then stir until smooth.
Microwaving chocolate gives you the same result for much less effort. You just need to do it in short increments. No more then 30 seconds to start and down to 10 seconds once it’s nearly done.

I’m appalled at the thought of microwaving chocolate, but I will admit I never tried.
I put it in a bowl that fits neatly over a pan of water that’s on low heat. Chocolate doesn’t need to be heated much to melt.
