Fill a saucepan with a few inches of water and place this over your hob at a medium heat. Let the water simmer.
Choose your favourite heatproof bowl and ensure that this fits neatly over your saucepan - there should be no way in which water could end up touching your chocolate!
Lower the heat of the water in your saucepan. It’s important that the water isn’t too hot as this may burn your chocolate.
Add your chocolate in small chunks to your bowl. Let it melt for approximately 4-5 minutes whilst stirring regularly.
Carefully remove the saucepan from the hob and let the chocolate cool down a little before using it.
Pick the best heatproof bowl you’ve got and put your chopped chocolate in it.
Microwave the chocolate for only 20 seconds. Then take out the chocolate and stir it. Keep cooking the chocolate and checking and stirring it every 5 seconds until all the chocolate has melted.
Now to the BEST part! Creating beautiful chocolate covered strawberries!
Put the chocolate into bowls to ensure that you or your children won’t get burned by the hot bowl that’s been used for melting the chocolate. Then dip your strawberries, one by one, in your preferred chocolate and make gorgeous patterns using different types of chocolate. Decorate your strawberries using spoons to create patterns or add nuts, sprinkles, or our own chocolate flakes to the chocolate-covered strawberries to make them stand out!
