WHAT TYPE OF CHOCOLATE SHOULD I USE?

Honestly, the chocolate I used for this recipe was the cheapest chocolate I could get! I bought the $1 Walmart chocolate bars and they worked so well. You can always use more expensive chocolate too if you’re looking to splurge! I love melting Lindt truffles as well as Ghiradelli chocolates when we have a fondue night.

Total time from start to finish: 2 hours and 25 minutes

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

You don’t need too much equipment to make these chocolate-covered ghost strawberries! They are super easy to prepare and only really uses a microwave to melt the chocolate. Other than that, I just melt the chocolate in bowls in 30-second intervals in the microwave. Some kind of skewer would be excellent so you don’t need to hold the strawberries and risk them falling into the chocolate.

You can alternatively use a piping bag if you like as well! Just make sure that the chocolate has slightly harden so you’re not dripping chocolate all over your counters!

WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO PREPARE?

This treat is super easy to prepare and require very little work which I love! The steps to make these yummy chocolate-covered ghost strawberries are:

Prepare – wash and dry all of the strawberries
Melt – the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals til completely melted
Dip – each strawberry in the chocolate and draw on a ghost face
Chill – in the fridge for minimally 2 hours so the chocolate can harden
Serve – and enjoy!

CAN I SUB/ADD ANYTHING OUT?

There really aren’t many ingredients to substitute in these chocolate-covered ghost strawberries. The only thing would be using your preferred brand of chocolate which can be the more expensive brands or even vegan or sustainable chocolate companies.

The strawberries, I would keep for sure as this recipe is chocolate-covered strawberries after all but you could try this with other fruits too if you’d like!

WHAT DOES IT TASTE LIKE?

These chocolate-covered ghost strawberries were soooo good! My husband and I ate the plate within minutes! I was surprised that this wasn’t as sweet but it might’ve just been the strawberries and chocolate I picked up specifically for this recipe!

You have a semi-hard chocolate shell and a sweet and ripe strawberry together in one bite. It is the perfect indulgent treat to have for Halloween!

HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?

These chocolate-covered strawberries keep for about 2 days in the fridge. The strawberries of course have a lot of moisture so beware of that! I just store them in an airtight container in the fridge more towards the door so the don’t freeze. They do taste good frozen though if that’s your preference!

You really can keep them for longer or for as long as the strawberries are in good condition but they are the best being eaten within 2 days. If you’re making this for other people, I suggest you make them the night before late at night to ensure that the chocolate shell has fully hardened.

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS DISH?

I was scrolling on Pinterest and saw these ghost strawberries and thought to make them myself! I’ve seen them time and time again but have never attempted to make them until this year!

I love chocolate-covered strawberries and its technically the only way I get my husband to eat strawberries so we enjoy them on date nights or when its one of ours birthdays/wedding anniversary!

HOW CAN I MEAL PREP THIS RECIPE?

You can easily take these as a treat when you next have work! They are so good but the only thing is that they can just a bit messy to eat!

COST OF THESE WHAT GOES WITH THESE CHOCOLATE-COVERED GHOST STRAWBERRIES?

These chocolate-covered strawberries are amazing and I wouldn’t say super affordable BUT it is affordable compared to buying it from the stores or a business. I love watching small businesses on Tiktok make these but they are just so dang expensive!

Based on my groceries in CAD, if you were buying EVERYTHING from scratch:

Chocolate-Covered Ghost Strawberries

1 Package Strawberries (1 lb) -$4,98
2 White Chocolate Bars (100g) – $1.00 each x 2 = $2.00
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (300g) – $3.80

Total: $9.98 before taxes (not all the ingredients were used and leftovers can be used for other recipes)

As all of these ingredients are new, if you just priced out the actual ingredients used to make these chocolate-covered ghost strawberries, it would come up to about $7.28 before taxes.
