Chocolate Dipped Spoons.. great for gift giving!
Why I Love This Recipe
I love coffee and this delightful recipe I found on the web a few years ago. You can use different color sugar, but use bright colors on white chocolate... natural color sugar looks good on dark chocolate colors. I made these for a bridal shower one year.
Ingredients You'll Need
1/2 cup chocolate chips
2 teaspoons shortening, divided
12 metal or plastic spoons
2 squares (1 ounce each) semisweet chocolate
4 teaspoons coarse sugar
Directions
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon shortening; stir until smooth. Dip each spoon into chocolate; tap spoon handles on edge of bowl to remove excess chocolate. Place on waxed paper; let stand until set.
