Stuffed Roasted Strawberries

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

2. 2

   Slice the tops of the berries off just below the stem.

3. 3

   Cut the tips off (about 1/4-inch), so that the berries will sit upright.

4. 4

   Next, use a small spoon or a melon ball scoop to hollow out the strawberries, working from their tops, in order to create a cavity in each one.

5. 5

   Stuff some chocolate into the cavity of each strawberry and place them upright in a baking dish.

6. 6

   Lightly sprinkle the berries with sugar, if using.

7. 7

   Roast the berries until soft and the chocolate is melted, about 10 to 12 minutes.

8. 8

   To serve, place 3 strawberries on a dessert plate in a triangle.

9. 9

   If the berries have given off liquid in the baking dish, spoon it over them.

10. 10

    Spray a small mound of cream in the center of the berries, and top each berry with a rosette of cream.

11. 11

    Sift a little cocoa powder over the plate, and serve!
