Supplies Needed: 
  • 1 package (16 ounces) Driscoll's Strawberries
  • 10 ounces white chocolate chips
  • Candy eyes
  • Fine-tipped black icing tube 

Directions: 
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Rinse the strawberries and dry them well with a soft cloth or paper towel.

Melt chocolate by placing chocolate in a glass bowl and microwave for 20 seconds and stir with a fork. Repeat microwaving and stiring until chocolate is not-quite melted. Shorten microwave time to 5 seconds and stir. Repeat if necessary until completely melted.

Hold berries by stem or leaves and dip into melted chocolate. Swirl until coated. Leave about ¼ inch of red showing below leaves. Gently shake off excess chocolate. Place berry on prepared baking sheet to set. Repeat with remaining berries.



Once chocolate is set, pipe a small amount of frosting to the back of candy eyes and attach to berries.




 Finally, use frosting to add a smile, a spooky mouth, fangs, or other fun ideas you have.
