Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Ingredients:
1 lb. fresh strawberries (washed and dried)
3/4 cup dark chocolate chips
2 tablespoons skim milk

Directions:
Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly.
Using low heat, melt the chocolate chips (while slowly adding the
milk) in a glass bowl over a pot of boiling water (double boiler
style).
Stir until smooth and remove from heat.
Hold the berries by their leaves, and dip them into the melted chocolate, covering them 3/4 way up.
Place the dipped berries onto a plate covered with wax paper. Allow to sit and cool.
Indulge!
My boyfriend and I discovered how to make these during our weekly date
nights. They are fun to make together and we can control the kind of
chocolate we're having as opposed to buying them and not knowing these
things. The strawberries maintain a delicious flavor and are still
decently healthy to eat. Hey, a little bit of dark chocolate is good
for the body! We don't feel guilty after dessert! Now we make them for family gatherings and everyone loves them!
