Black & White Strawberries

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 1/2 tsp raspberry liqueur (framboise)
• 1 1/2 tsp water
• 8 large strawberries, with stems
• 1/2 oz white chocolate, chopped, or 2 tbsp white chocolate chips

Makes 4 Servings

1. Line a large baking sheet with wax paper. In a small microwavable bowl, combine the chocolate chips, liqueur, and water; microwave on High, stirring twice, until melted and smooth, about 1 1/2 minutes. Holding a berry by the hull, dip the berry halfway into the chocolate; set on the wax paper. Repeat with the remaining berries and chocolate.
2. In another small microwavable bowl, melt the white chocolate in the microwave on High, stirring once, until melted and smooth, about 1 minute. Dip a fork in the white chocolate and drizzle over the strawberries. Refrigerate until the chocolate hardens. Serve chilled.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW New Complete Cookbook. If you ever saw the photo for this recipe, you would want to make these yummy treats. You've probably seen these devilish treats in fancy restaurants or upscale bakeries. They are very easy to make at home and just as delicious. The key, I believe, to making them so good is the raspberry liqueur. Even though the directions say to melt the chocolate in the microwave, I recommend melting the chocolate in a double broiler or in a saucepan for a more gooey taste. Trust me on this one.
