Chocolate + Apples = Nom, Nom, Nom!

I love chocolate. I enjoy apples. I like to multi-task. Therefore chocolate covered apples make me smile.



What you'll need:
-Apples
-Chocolate Chips (I love dark chocolate)
-Wax Paper
-Small amount of oil
-Crush pecans, toasted coconut, anything you like.




-Slice your apples. I hope your core isn't crooked :::shudder:::



-Depending on how many apples you're making, put some chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl.
-Microwave in increments of 35 seconds to get the chocolate melting. Stir each time you take it out and when it's start getting gooey, you're good to go.



-Pour a very small amount of oil in the chocolate. Helps it to stick to the fruit and stay nice and purty.
-Dunk your apple in the chocolate. Twirl it around. Cover it completely. Cover a sliver. You choose!



-Roll in pecans or whatever if you'd like.
-Place on wax paper and place in fridge to harden.



-Store them in the fridge.

DEVOUR them and think to yourself, "damn, I am a domestic diva without even trying"

  1. yum. Do u think it's the same with strawberries? Just melt the chocolate, coat and refrigerate?

    thinking of making some just because I'm in a shit mood. Chocolate covered strawberries should help.

  6. What a perfect combination! I sometimes spread nutella on apples, but this looks WAY more gourmet. I love the idea of dipping it in nuts afterward too. Yum!
