Chocolate covered strawberries have long been one of my favorite desserts. They’re fun, absolutely delicious, and they can even be romantic. I love making them for special occasions like Valentine’s Day, and I’ve even had them atop my birthday cake!
This is a super simple recipe, but if you’re living the low carb lifestyle, it’s important to know how to make it Keto friendly!
What ingredients do I need to make keto chocolate covered strawberries?
All you need is strawberries, your low carb chocolate of choice, and coconut oil!
That’s it!
What keto chocolate should I use?
The melted chocolate mixed with the coconut oil is what makes the magic happen. That’s why it’s important to pick a low carb chocolate that melts easily.
I prefer to use Lily’s Sweets, specifically their milk chocolate baking chips, for my chocolate covered strawberries.
BUT you can switch it up any way you’d like from dark chocolate to even white chocolate!
Their chocolate bars will also work just as fine. And you can order online or find them in many, many grocery stores—even Walmart. Yay easily accessible keto goodies!

Keto Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Ingredients
- 12 strawberries
- ⅓ cup low carb chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet Lily's)
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil (refined coconut oil won't taste like coconut if you prefer)
Instructions
1. Wash strawberries and pat completely dry. Set aside
2. In a medium bowl, place the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir and microwave an additional 10-15 seconds until melted and stir with fork.
3. Prepare a cutting board or sheet pan with a piece of parchment. Place a toothpick into each strawberry. You may also use a fork for this part, or simply hold the green tops. Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, about ⅔ of the way to the top. Hold over bowl until most excess chocolate is removed. Place onto the parchment. Repeat to use remaining strawberries.
4. Place into the fridge to harden for at least 30 minutes for best results. alternatively You may also place into the freezer for 15 minutes to quick set, then store in the refrigerator. To store, cover or place in air tight container for up to three days for best freshness.
