Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Ingredients
16 ounces milk chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening
1 pound fresh strawberries with leaves

Preparation:

Mix bittersweet and semisweet chocolate in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave it for 1 minute, then remove and stir. Again microwave it for an additional 30 seconds and again remove and stir. Repeat this process until the chocolate is melted completely and give a smooth texture. Now, line a sheet pan with a wax paper. Hold the strawberry by its stem and swirl it in chocolate for coating of whole strawberry except a little portion beneath the stem and allow excess of chocolate to drip back in the bowl. Repeat the process for all strawberries. Melt white chocolate and dip fork points into it and then drool and swirl into dark chocolate making a superb pattern. Lastly, allow them to harden at room temperature and then refrigerate them until they are set.
