1Preparing the strawberries: Gently wash the strawberries and dry well to ensure that the chocolate adheres properly.
2Melting the dark chocolate: chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl with the vegetable oil (if using). Heat in the microwave in pulses of 20 seconds, stirring after each time, until the chocolate is smooth and liquid. This may take about 40 seconds in total.
3Dipping the strawberries: Dip each strawberry in the melted chocolate, turning it to coat it evenly. Gently wipe the bottom to remove excess chocolate and place on parchment paper or wax paper to set.
4Melting the white chocolate: cut the white chocolate into small pieces and heat in the same way until it is smooth.
5Decoration: Drizzle the melted white chocolate over each strawberry, and immediately add holiday candies before the chocolate sets. Repeat with all the strawberries.
6Serving or storing: Wait about 5 minutes for the chocolate to harden before serving, or store until ready to enjoy.
