Chocolate Balsamic Strawberry Cups


10 large strawberries
1 cup vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips or carob chips
Modena balsamic vinegar (the more it is aged, the sweeter and thicker it is)

Wash and dry strawberries. Evenly cut the stem top off the strawberry about 1/8 of an inch down. Using a sharp paring knife core the strawberry so it resembles a cup.

Place chocolate chips in a glass microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Stir until completely melted. The chocolate chips won't look like they are melted but a good stir will blend them all together.

Line a baking sheet or plate with parchment or wax paper. Dip each strawberry in the melted chocolate and set cut-side down on the paper. Refrigerate until chocolate is hard.



To serve, pour the Modena balsamic vinegar into the cup of the strawberry. You can serve by passing the plate of strawberries with balsamic in a creamer container  and have each guest pour their own or serve individually in cordial glasses.
