Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

These chocolate-covered strawberries are made with the simplest recipe I know. White chocolate may be drizzled over the milk chocolate for a fancier look. They are perfect for parties, Valentine's Day, and weddings. Decorate with frosting bow ties, bells, butterflies, hearts, roses, etc.
