Photo: Chili Chocolate-Covered Strawberries Recipe
Ingredients
- 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/8 teaspoon ground pure chili powder, such as ancho
- 10 large strawberries with long stems
Directions
In a heat-proof mixing bowl, add the chocolate, cream, and butter. Place over a smaller pot of simmering water. Be sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Stir until chocolate is melted. Stir in the chili powder and mix until fully incorporated.
Hold each strawberry by the long stem and dip into the chocolate allowing the excess to drizzle back into the pan. Place chocolate covered strawberries on a parchment or waxed paper lined sheet tray. Once chocolate is cool, chill until fully set, about 30 minutes.

So simple, so delicious. I bought really good strawberries for this and it paid off. The bittersweet chocolate hits just the right note with the incredibly juicy and sweet fruit! Yum. Chili powder is a nice addition. Next time I will substitute chili with some sea salt to change things up a bit.

These are fabulous, and always a big hit. The last time I made them, I also added a little cinnamon to the mix and everyone loved them this way too, even kids. You can adjust the chili if you like it spicier. Taking the time to melt the chocolate over the simmering water really makes this foolproof.

Nice! I'm sure this tastes great with the chili. I didn't have any, just did without, and with half and half instead of heavy cream and it was fantastic!
