These Strawberry Chocolate Hearts are the ultimate Valentine's Day dessert.

Surprise your loved ones with these mouth-watering treats cause who doesn't love chocolate-dipped strawberries? Serve them as part of a Valentine's Day dessert tray, or enjoy them as a shared family snack. 

You'll need a heart cookie cutter, strawberries, dark chocolate, and chocolate ball sprinkles to make this easy recipe.

You can swap for milk chocolate hearts and use other colored sprinkles for the edge detailing. Either way, they are sure to be a hit!

TIP: Chocolate ball sprinkles are available on Amazon, but Godiva and Valrhona make similar 'pearls'. If all else fails, you can even use chocolate chips!
