Ingredients

  • 2 pounds fresh strawberries
  • 24 ounces vanilla almond bark
  • 8 ounces chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Wash the strawberries and dry them completely using paper towels. Any moisture left on the berries can keep the coating from sticking properly.

  2. Line a large baking sheet or tray with parchment paper.

  3. Place the vanilla almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth and fully melted.

  4. Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip it into the melted almond bark until coated. Let a little of the excess drip away, leaving enough coating to create the ghost shape.

  5. Place the coated strawberry onto the parchment paper. Gently push it forward, then pull it back about half an inch to create the ghost's flowing tail.

  6. Repeat with the remaining strawberries, then refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until the coating has hardened.

  7. Add the chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each one until smooth.

  8. Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or small zip-top bag and snip a tiny corner off.

  9. Pipe two eyes and a mouth onto each ghost strawberry. Return the strawberries to the refrigerator for another 30 minutes so the faces can fully set before serving.

Recipe Notes

  • Dry the strawberries completely before dipping for the smoothest coating.
  • Vanilla almond bark melts smoother, making it the easiest option for dipping.
  • Melted white chocolate also works well. It's usually less expensive and easier to find, but it may be slightly thicker than almond bark when melted.
  • Pipe the ghost faces after the white coating has completely set for the cleanest design.
  • These are best served the same day for the freshest strawberries.
