Melt some milk chocolate (or white, dark - whatever your fav.) in a double broiler. Put a little water in one pot and put another of about the same size on top of that. Put in the chocolate and melt it. Be careful to keep stirring and not let it burn. Then, just dip the strawberries in it. If there's not enough chocolate to actually dip them in, drizzle it down them with a spoon.
Sounds good! Now you've got me wanting them!

You get the strawberries and you can go to the store and buy the chocolate that gets hard on ice cream and dip the strawberries in there so it won't drip all over the place

My grandmother told me all you have to do is melt some semi-sweet chocolate chips, add some milk, and maybe some sugar. You can either put it and melt it in a pan or the microwave. After is melt you have to dip the strawberries fast and put them on wax paper after being dipped.

get the chocolate that comes in a brick (white or milk chocolate) for making the molded chocolate lollipops, melt it in a double boiler. Rinse and dry your strawberries and dip them and set them on a buttered piece of wax paper or cookie sheet.

Take large juicy strawberries, wash them and let them airdry.
Melt your favorite chocolate (over water bath) and dip the strawberries in it. Set them on wax paper and let them set up.

You melt chocolate and put it into a bowl. Then dip the strawberries into it and put them in the fridge. Take them out and indulge in the goodness! They are delious!

melt chocolate - you may have to add some wax to it (you can buy sealing wax - colorless/odorless/tasteless) and keep it just warm enough to stay liquid - don't overheat!
Dip the strawberries in it, and then set them to cool.
The wax helps make the chocolate shiny and stick to the berry/hold it's shape.
Enjoy!
