Gourmet Chocolate Covered Strawberries and More!

1. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Dream Bars

These gorgeous chocolate-covered strawberry bars are a dream come true. (Maybe that’s where the name comes from!)

They’re rich and creamy, sweet and tangy, chocolatey and strawberry-licious. There’s just so much going on in every bite. 

There’s the warm Oreo crust, the smooth vanilla cheesecake, and the strawberry topping.

There’s also fudgy chocolate pudding and whipped cream. Seriously, what more could you ask for?!

Oh, and did I mention it’s a no-bake dessert? Yeah. This recipe has got it going on.

2. Strawberry Chocolate Brownie Trifle

Here’s another fun layered dessert, and this one’s boozy to boot! Use milk instead of Kahlua for a kid-friendly version.) 

There’s a lot to love between the brownies, whipped cream, and strawberries.

Plus, you can make these in single-serve dessert glasses, so everyone gets their own.

3. Easy Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake

This cake is unbelievably beautiful and yet so simple to make.

If you can make a homemade chocolate cake, you can make this one. After all, the cake layers are the hard part – everything else is just assembling.

Biting into this pretty cake is like biting into a chocolate-strawberry cloud. It’s soft, fluffy, and yummier than you can imagine.

4. Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake Sheet Cake

If you prefer sheet cakes to layered cakes, try this recipe instead.

It has the same tasty chocolate and strawberry shortcake flavor as the one above. It just looks a little different, is all.

Being a sheet cake, this one is a breeze to decorate. So load it up with as many strawberries and whipped cream as you can handle and dig in!

5. Gourmet Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

Chocolate-covered strawberries are a classic. It’s the kind of elegant dessert that just never goes out of style.

You can make these with two ingredients in about 20 minutes. And there’s no cooking involved, so you can whip up three dozen in no time. 

Trust me; no matter the occasion, everyone will love these.

Oh, and they’re also ideal for a super simple yet super stunning cake decoration. Pop them on top of any cake or cupcake, and it’s instantly gorgeous.

Case and point, the recipe below…

6. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Cupcakes

These gorgeous treats are perfect for date nights, holidays, or formal events.

They’re lovely, rich, flavorful, and just plain fun. Plus, you get to enjoy two desserts in one with these tasty treats. 

Make them pop even more with a few stripes of white chocolate. Yum!

7. Chocolate Strawberry Pudding

Don’t think of this as your grandma’s jello pudding.

Instead, it’s more like bread pudding with a soft, cakey layer whose center is pure liquid yumminess.

It’s a warm, gooey dessert that’ll remind you of chocolate lava cake. However, the inside consistency is a bit thicker; this one has strawberries, too.

Believe it or not, I like it even better than chocolate lava cake.

8. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Truffles

Don’t you just love truffles? The sharp crunch as you bite through the outer chocolate shell. The soft, melt-in-your-mouth cream in the middle. 

Truffles are heavenly. 

And these five-ingredient truffles are even better than most. Why? Because they’re homemade and feature the strawberry-chocolate combo.

That’s about as good as it gets.

9. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Brownies

Want to know how to make thick, fudgy brownies even better? Cover them in strawberries and another layer of rich chocolate sauce!

These are genuinely indulgent, and you can’t eat them every day. Still, as an occasional treat, they’re unbeatable.

Everyone who tastes them will want at least two more, so make extra!

10. Dark Sea Salt Strawberry Chocolate Ice Cream

This no-churn ice cream is a sweet and salty masterpiece. And thanks to the strawberries, it’s a bit tart and tangy, too.

This easy-to-make treat will help you beat the summer’s heat. Though it’s so good, you’ll want it all year.

You’ll need just five ingredients and about 20 minutes to make it. Just work on it a day ahead of time because freezing takes some time.

11. Strawberry Chocolate Chip Cobbler

Take your strawberry cobbler to the next level by adding chocolate.

It’s the same warm and comforting fruit cobbler you know and love. It’s just given a hit of decadence with yummy chocolate chips.

And what a difference it is. It makes every bite sweeter, richer, and more delectable.

But best of all, you can have this fruity, buttery dessert ready in just 45 minutes. 

12. Strawberry Chocolate Chip Cookies

I know people think apple pie is the quintessential American dessert. Honestly, though, I think it’s chocolate chip cookies.

Didn’t we all look forward to a big glass of milk and a plate of cookies? I know I sure did – and still do!

But if you want to make them a little more grown-up, you have to try this recipe!

Adding strawberries makes them lighter, moister, gooier, and just plain better. 

Don’t believe me? Try these soft, melt-in-your-mouth cookies for yourself. You’ll only need one to know I’m right.

13. Strawberry Cake Mix Cookies

These crumbly pink cookies are softer than most. The secret? Cake mix!

Instead of making homemade, from-scratch cookies, just use boxed cake mix. They’re just as good and take half the time.

This recipe calls for a strawberry boxed cake mix, and you’ll combine it with eggs, baking powder, oil, and vanilla extract.

Then, add white chocolate chips and bake them. That’s all it takes. 

These are perfect for Mother’s Day, baby showers, or Valentine’s Day. They’re also easy enough to make that they don’t require a special occasion.

14. Chocolate Strawberry Whoopie Pies

I’m sure you’ve had whoopie pies before.

They’re two airy layers of cake with a rich, creamy center. Like oversized Oreos, but soft. Or giant Ding Dongs without the extra chocolate coating.

You’ll make these even tastier by adding a strawberry cream filling.

It gives them a light fruitiness that’s out of this world. Of course, making them heart-shaped is entirely up to you, but it’s pretty darn cute, right?

15. Chocolate Strawberry Fudge

I know I keep using the words ‘thick’ and ‘fudgy’ to describe these desserts. But in this case, there’s no other way to describe it.

This fudge is thick, fudgy, and phenomenal.

It’s so unbelievably rich; every bite is a sugar high waiting to happen. Trust me when I say no one will believe these are vegan.

They are, though. Every bite is 100% plant-based. Enjoy! 

16. Inside-Out Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Cake

This cake is so beautiful; your guests will swear you bought it at a bakery. It’s also luscious, indulgent, and extremely rich. 

Don’t be scared off by its exquisite appearance. It’s actually remarkably straightforward to make.

In fact, you can have it ready from scratch in less than 90 minutes. And yes, everyone will love it.

17. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Pie

The pink layer of this pie is so bright that it almost doesn’t look real. But you’ll use strawberry gelatin to get the stunning hue.

It’s bright and pretty but also silky smooth and not too heavy. And the gelatin layer keeps it from being too rich, even with all the chocolate and cream. 

Plus, you’ll top it in chocolate-covered strawberries. And we’ve already talked about what a great idea that is.

Anytime I can get two desserts in one, I’m on board!

18. No-Bake Strawberry Chocolate Tart

This stunning no-bake dessert tastes as good as it looks. And while it seems impossible, you can have this tart ready in just 15 minutes.

It features a crunchy, buttery Oreo crust with a creamy filling of chocolate, fresh strawberries, and salty nuts.

19. Strawberry Buttercream Candies

Sweet and tangy buttercream filling surrounded by a hard chocolate shell…sounds pretty dreamy, huh?

But that’s exactly what you’ll get with these buttercream candies. 

Each one is small – no more than a mouthful. Even so, it packs a wallop of flavor that’ll make you weak in the knees.

20. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Cheesecake

Nothing does sweet, tangy, and over-indulgent like cheesecake. I can’t think of anything that can compare with the thick and creamy filling.

It’s even incredible plain!

That said, this chocolate-covered strawberry cheesecake is too good to miss.

The filling features strawberry puree and extract for maximum fruity goodness. Meanwhile, that layer of chocolate on top ensures every bite is a chocolatey dream.

And yes, there are more chocolate-covered strawberries here. But can you blame me? They look beyond irresistible!

21. Strawberry White Chocolate Gooey Bars

These pretty pink bars are ooey, gooey, and oh-so-chewy.

They have a heavenly crumbly buttery crust and a sweet, creamy strawberry and white chocolate chip center.

Each bite seems sweeter than the last with these simple bars. And since they use only five ingredients, they’re a cinch to make, too. 

Serve them for any occasion, and they’ll be gone in a flash. 

22. Dark Chocolate Strawberry Mousse Parfaits

Looking for something cool, creamy, and not too sweet? Check out these yummy parfaits.

Don’t get me wrong; they’re rich and delectable, like most desserts on this list. 

However, the lightness of the ingredients keeps it from being too sugary and heavy.

So, these parfaits are ideal if you want a light, refreshing dessert for summer.  

23. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Ice Cream Cake

Two layers of moist, fluffy chocolate cake surrounding cold, sweet strawberry ice cream.

What’s not to love about this tasty ice cream cake?

It’s a fruity, frosty dream come true even without the chocolate ganache. But when you add that extra bit of decadence, it’s game over.

There’s no denying this cake’s allure. So get ready to reach for seconds!

24. Chocolate Strawberry Dump Cake

If you’ve never made a dump cake before, you’re missing out. There’s nothing quicker, easier, or less stressful than this simple dessert.

For example, this one uses just three ingredients: butter, strawberry pie filling, and devil’s food cake mix. 

Layer each ingredient in a baking dish and bake for about 40 minutes – no stirring!

That’s all you have to do for this mouth-wateringly scrumptious cake.

Even if you’ve never baked anything in your entire life, you can bake this one. So go on and give it a try! What have you got to lose?

25. Strawberry Milk Chocolate Chip Blondie Bars

You can have these blondie bars ready with fewer than ten ingredients and 20 minutes of prep.

They’re dense, thick, and full of chocolate and strawberry flavor.

They also have plenty of brown sugar and butter flavor and taste terrific with a tall glass of cold milk. 

26. Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Muffins

Sweet enough for dessert and fruity enough for breakfast, these chocolate-covered strawberry muffins are an any occasion sweet treat. 

They’re a little too rich and calorie-heavy to eat for breakfast every day. Even so, no one would fault you for enjoying them once in a while.

27. Strawberry Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Speaking of breakfast: check out these pancakes.

They’re the typical light and fluffy chocolate chip pancakes that most people adore. 

However, you’ll take these up a notch with fresh, juicy strawberries. Add chunks into the batter, or simply place them on top. 

Either way, they bring a bright yumminess to an already superb breakfast. 

28. Strawberry Waffles With Chocolate Chips

Of course, you may be more of a waffles person. That’s okay, too! This recipe gives you crunchy, strawberry- and chocolate-filled waffles.

Cover them in syrup, more berries, whipped cream, or anything else you like. You won’t be sorry you did.

Remember, now and then, you have to treat yo’ self!

29. Strawberry Chocolate Smoothie

Want something sweet but not so unhealthy? Go a little lighter with this strawberry and chocolate smoothie.

It still has plenty of fruity, chocolatey flavor but isn’t quite as fatty. 

Plus, this one also has bananas in it. So you get an extra boost of goodness, plus plenty of natural sweet flavor.

30. Chocolate Strawberry Yogurt Mousse

This dessert is a must-try for anyone who’s dieting but has a sweet tooth.

Whip it up in five minutes with just four ingredients: Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, Stevia, and strawberries.

Mix everything until it’s light, fluffy, and cloud-like. Then, top it with a strawberry or enjoy it as is.

It’s a low-carb, low-calorie treat that won’t make you feel guilty after eating it.
