Canna-chocolate can be made easily in the microwave, and it's versatile. In addition to pairing with fruit, try it on ice cream. (Bruce Wolf, The Cannabist)

Strawberries dipped and decadent with canna-chocolate (recipe)

Strawberries dipped in cannabis-infused chocolate take an already pretty, sexy dessert to new heights.

The glaze is made with canna-coconut oil and melted chocolate, and the strawberries coated with this dreamy dip are wonderful to share.

These berries take practically no time to prepare, and will keep in the fridge overnight. Other fresh fruits can be dipped as well, or dried fruits. Apricots dipped in canna-chocolate sauce are divine.

Canna-chocolate dipped strawberries
Serves 4

2 tablespoons canna-coconut oil

1½ cups chocolate chips

12 strawberries with stems

Directions

1. In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, stir together chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Remove and stir. Continue microwaving and stirring in 15-second intervals until melted and smooth. Let sit until chocolate reaches room temperature.

2. Dip the berries into the melted chocolate. Set on parchment paper and leave alone for at least 30 minutes.

Note: Taking a different tack, I made hubby and myself a delightful topping for coconut ice cream that was begging for chocolate sauce. I simply heated 4 teaspoons of canna-coconut oil, added a cup of chocolate chips and melted in microway. Poured this over the ice cream and we were totally blissed out. Simple and so awesome!
