Ingredients
Scale

Instructions
- Prep your strawberries: Wash and dry them thoroughly.
- Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the white chocolate in 20-30 second intervals until smooth. Mix in coconut oil if using.

Notes
Ensure strawberries are completely dry before dipping to prevent chocolate from seizing. Experiment with toppings and flavors for a unique twist.
