Ingredients

10 to 12 ripe strawberries rinsed and patted dry
1 cup Raaka Maple Dark Baking Chocolate

Miso-Tahini Caramel

¼ cup tahini
2 ½ tablespoons mellow white miso paste
1 tablespoon coconut oil melted
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons room temperature water

Instructions

Fill a small pot with water and place a heat-proof glass bowl over top. Add the chocolate and bring water to a simmer over medium heat. Once the chocolate starts to melt, stir constantly with a spatula until smooth and melted. Remove from heat.
Grab a strawberry and dip! Place on a parchment lined plate and repeat this step until all the strawberries are covered. Transfer them to the fridge and let cool for at least 45 minutes.
In a small bowl, add coconut oil and tahini. Mix well with a whisk and then add the miso and maple syrup. Continue to whisk until smooth. Add the water to loosen and mix well until combined. Once smooth, transfer to a squeeze bottle or plastic bag with the very tip cut off.
Remove chilled strawberries from the fridge and drizzle with the caramel. You can enjoy immediately but I like to pop them back in the fridge for the caramel to set a bit, around 15 minutes. Enjoy chilled!

Notes

If you have pretzels or potato chips, use them to scoop up the remaining chocolate for another treat!

If you want a subtle coconut flavor, use unrefined coconut oil. If you do not want any coconut flavor, use refined.

For the drizzling the miso-tahini caramel, you can use a squeeze bottle, fill a plastic bag with the tip cut off, or you can use a whisk to drizzle it over the strawberries (this way looks a bit more 'rustic').

You can make these a few hours a head of time and keep them in the fridge if you'd like, but I would recommend enjoying them on the same day of making them for maximum freshness and taste.
