Ingredients:
- 12 large, long-stemmed strawberries
- 12 small round shortbread cookies
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon refined coconut oil
- 1/4 cup white chocolate melting wafers
- 2 tablespoons freeze-dried raspberry dust
- 12 lollipop sticks
Instructions:
- Wash strawberries gently and lay them on a clean kitchen towel for 30 minutes to air-dry.
- Use a fresh paper towel to pat each berry again, ensuring the area near the leaves is bone-dry to prevent chocolate slippage.
- Thread a lollipop stick through the center of a shortbread cookie and then insert it halfway into the base of the strawberry.
- Place semi-sweet chocolate chips and refined coconut oil in a microwave-safe glass bowl.
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is smooth, glossy, and fully melted.
- Dip each strawberry-cookie pop into the melted chocolate, rotating to coat completely, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Melt white chocolate wafers, drizzle over the pops, and immediately sprinkle with raspberry dust before the coating sets.
