Simply melt some chocolate and dip your strawberries into the melted chocolate.
Boil some water in a saucepan. Place some eating quality chocolate in a bowl. When the water is boiling, turn the heat down, place the bowl over the saucepan, making sure the water doesn't touch the bowl and steam doesn't get into the chocolate. Stir the chocolate until it has melted. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and dip your strawberries into the chocolate and allow to cool.
The results will depend on the type of chocolate you use. Use good quality chocolate, preferably with at least 50% cocoa solids. Don't use compound chocolate, the results will be very disappointing.

1.Melt the chocolate. You can use any kind of chocolate chips; just whatever you think will work best with the strawberries. Use a double boiler to make sure you don't burn the chocolate. If you don't have a double boiler, you can make one by filling a medium saucepan 3/4 full with water. Then rest a smaller saucepan or a heat-proof bowl inside of it and fill it with your chocolate chips. Turn the stove on low heat. Stir occasionally.
2.Rinse and dry the strawberries. You don't have to be extremely delicate with them, since the chocolate will cover most of the strawberry, but make sure to check for bruises and dark spots. Make sure to leave the stems and leaves, as they make the berries easier to grip and look nicer than if you cut them off. After rinsing each one, dry them well; the chocolate won't stick if they're wet.
3.Line a cooking sheet with wax paper. Parchment paper works just as well; whichever you have in the kitchen is fine. Make sure the cooking sheet is large enough to place all the strawberries on the sheet, as well as giving each a few inches of room for after dipping.
4.Check the chocolate. When all but a few pieces have melted, turn off the stove; you don't want to burn the chocolate, or have it boil over. Stir the last few pieces a bit to melt them. Your chocolate will be smooth and creamy.
5.Take a strawberry, and dip it completely into the chocolate. Twirl it around to get it completely coated. Put it on the cookie sheet to cool. Repeat until all the strawberries are covered.
6Store in your refrigerator until the chocolate has completely hardened.
7.Enjoy!

Very carefully melt chocolate.
Dip perfectly dry strawberries into chocolate 1/2 to 3/4 way up the berry.
Be VERY, VERY , VERY CAREFUL NOT to get even a single drop of water into your chocolate. Even a single drop of water might make the entire batch seize up into a grainy mass.

Many people just melt chocolate chips on a double boiler (make sure heat isn't too high), then dip the strawberries into it. This is more like a fondue
