Baked strawberries with chocolate filling topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 12 very large strawberries
- 30-60 g dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sugar, optional
- Whipped cream in a can
- Cocoa powder, for serving
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 200°C.
- Trim the tops of the berries just below the stem. Trim the tips (about 0.5 cm) so the berries stand upright. Then, using a small spoon or a watermelon scoop, scoop out the inside of the strawberries to create a cavity in each berry. Place a small amount of chocolate in the cavity of each strawberry and stand them upright in a baking dish. Lightly dust the berries with sugar, if using. Bake the strawberries until soft and the chocolate has melted, about 10-12 minutes.
- To serve, arrange 3 strawberries in a triangle on a dessert plate. If the berries have released any liquid into the baking dish, pour it over the strawberries. Place a small mound of cream in the center between the berries and top each berry with whipped cream. Sprinkle a little cocoa powder on the plate and serve!
