Reasons You’ll Love This Recipe:

• Just 4 ingredients – No fancy grocery run required, just melt, sprinkle, and drizzle.
• No baking, no candy thermometer – The microwave (or a double boiler) and your fridge do all the work.
• Tastes just like the fancy stuff – All the flavor of those chocolate-dipped freeze-dried strawberries, made at home for a fraction of the cost.
• Ready in under 30 minutes – Most of that is just fridge time while it sets.
• Easy to customize – Swap the chips, add a sprinkle of sea salt, or drizzle with both chocolates for a fun swirl.

Ingredient Notes & Substitutions:

For a full ingredient list with quantities, please check out the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

• Dark chocolate chips – Semisweet works too, or use no-added-sugar dark chocolate chips for a lower-sugar version.
• Coconut oil – Helps the chocolate set with a smooth, snappable texture and makes it easier to spread — you can skip it, but the chocolate may be slightly thicker to work with.
• Freeze-dried strawberries – Freeze-dried raspberries or a mix of freeze-dried berries would work well too.
• White chocolate chips – Skip these (and the second batch of coconut oil) if you want a simpler, all-dark-chocolate version.

How to Make Strawberry Bark

For complete instructions, please check out the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Melt the dark chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil, stirring until smooth.
3. Pour the melted dark chocolate onto the parchment-lined pan and spread into an even layer.
4. Sprinkle the freeze-dried strawberries evenly over the chocolate while it’s still soft.
5. Melt the white chocolate chips with the remaining 1 teaspoon of coconut oil, then drizzle over the top.
6. Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes, or until fully set. Break into pieces and enjoy.

Tips and Variations

• No Added Sugar – use your favorite no added sugar chocolate (like Bake Believe or Lily’s brands).
• Dairy-Free – use your preferred plant-based/ dairy-free chocolate substitutes for the dark and white chocolates.
• Add a pinch of flaky salt – Sprinkle it on right before the chocolate sets for a sweet-and-salty finish.
• Switch up the mix-ins – Chopped pistachios, shredded coconut, or a drizzle of both chocolates swirled together all work great.
• Break it into uneven pieces – Don’t worry about making it perfect, the rustic shards are part of the charm.
• Freeze-dried, not dried – Regular dried strawberries are chewy and won’t give you the same crisp bite, so stick with freeze-dried here.
• This is basically a homemade Tru Fru dupe – Same chocolate-covered freeze-dried strawberry flavor you love, made in one big batch for way less than the little bags cost.

Meal Prep & Storage

• Fridge – Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Freezer – Freezes well for up to 1 month — a great one to stash for whenever a craving hits.
• Room temp – Fine for a few hours at room temperature, but the chocolate will soften and it holds its shape best chilled.
