Chocolate Covered Strawberries

I LOVE chocolate covered strawberries.  But the strawberries have to look amazing for me to even think about making them.  I have made them twice recently and wanted to share how I make them.  I tried to turn them into footballs for the Super Bowl back in February but that didn't turn out so well.  I used white chocolate chips and they didn't melt too well and clogged the plastic mustard bottle I tried to use to decorate with.  I need to use the almond bark next time and it should work a lot better.

I made these for a casual St Patrick's Day get together we had and the looked beautiful.  But I forgot to get them out of the fridge and serve them that night :)  I am glad I did forget though.  I didn't put them on wax paper for drying, I put them on the pretty serving platter right away and the chocolate stuck to the glass platter.  So we missed out on about half the chocolate goodness.
