Submitted by Rita1652

"This is a romantic, seductive, rich, lush and thick, soft, chocolate covered berries! NOT a bite and crunch covered berries! Great for feeding your LOVED ONES. I've also cut a slice into the strawberry and put it onto a rim of my recipe #49905. You can decorate the top of a decadent chocolate cake with them."

How many times can a person say "Oh wow" while eating these? Infinite! I splurged on some really gorgeous strawberries and made two batches, one with semisweet chocolate and cherry liquour, and one with white chocolate and the Grand Marnier. My only complaint is that it takes about 60 seconds to polish off the bowl, but it's so easy to make more!

These were incredible, and so easy to make! Everyone loved them. My new "Dessert to impress!" Thanks!

I tried this recipre twice, thinking maybe I did something wrong, or overcooked the chocolate. It turned out too thick to have the berries look nice. Using chocolate that needs to be tempered may have better results.

The taste is 5 stars! The chocolate and butter did not become smooth enough for dipping and adding the cream and liquor did not help. I tried more melted butter but no luck. I was able to push the chocolate onto the strawberries kind of like fudge. I would love to know what I did wrong so I can fix it next time. The taste is exactly what I wanted and the creaminess, not brittle/breakable texture was also my goal but they did not look like yours and definitely not dippable.
