stamping and strawberries.

to celebrate my friend's birthday, i made chocolate covered strawberries. this was my third time making them, and i think i'm gettin' the hang of it.

i used dark chocolate chips and about 1-2 tbsp of vegetable oil. i realized the key is not overmelting the chips in the microwave. i melted them for two 30 second intervals. i kept stirring as i was melting them. i only needed about maybe 10 more seconds, and it was completely melted.

i created happy birthday picks as well. i just punched and stamped the circles, and then glued a toothpick to the back.

combining stamping and cooking brings me such joy!
oh, and they tasted great!
