Posted by Manjeri Skincare Team on

Benefits: Dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants to fight free radicals, while strawberries provide vitamin C for skin brightening.

Skin Concern: Premature aging

Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 5 minutes | Serves: 6

Ingredients:

  • 12 fresh strawberries
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (70% cacao or higher)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions:

  1. Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly.
  2. Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between.
  3. Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate and place it on a parchment-lined tray.
  4. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until the chocolate hardens.

Shopping Tips:

  • Strawberries: Choose firm, bright red strawberries with green, fresh-looking tops.
  • Dark Chocolate: Use high-quality chocolate with a high cacao percentage for maximum benefits.

Cooking Tips:

  • Add a sprinkle of sea salt or chopped nuts before the chocolate hardens for extra texture and flavor.
  • Use skewers or toothpicks to avoid mess while dipping.
