Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 3/4 cup (180ml) whole milk, cold
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 pint (about 300g) fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 6 ounces (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry mix. Use a pastry cutter or fork to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits.
- Pour in cold whole milk and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Cut out rounds about 2 inches in diameter to make 12 to 14 biscuit puffs.
- Place biscuit rounds on the lined baking sheet spaced about 1 inch apart. Brush tops with beaten egg.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and puffed.
- Transfer biscuit puffs to a cooling rack and cool completely for about 20 minutes.
- Hull and halve fresh strawberries, ensuring they are dry.
- Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Press a strawberry half onto the flat side of each biscuit puff, then dip the strawberry-topped side into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
- Place dipped biscuit puffs on parchment paper and let chocolate harden at room temperature or chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
Notes
Chill the butter before cutting into flour for flaky texture. Do not overmix dough to keep biscuits tender. Ensure biscuit puffs and strawberries are completely cool and dry before dipping in chocolate to prevent sliding. Use coconut oil in chocolate for a glossy finish. For gluten-free, substitute flour and milk accordingly.
