Instructions

1. Place the items to be dipped in the refrigerator for at least three hours prior to dipping them. The cold will help the chocolate to set faster once it is dipped.

2. Melt white or brown chocolate morsels in a double boiler. Stir on medium heat until smooth. Remove from heat.

3. Place the item to be dipped directly into the melted chocolate. Use the fork or candy dipper to submerge it, or roll it in the chocolate until it is completely coated.

4. Scoop the candy out with the dipper and hold it over the pot, shaking slightly in a circular motion to allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the pot.

5. Carefully transfer the candy from the dipper or fork to a sheet of wax or parchment paper.

6. Add decorative sprinkles, nuts or coconut to the candies before they harden, or drizzle melted chocolate in a different color over the candies to create a design.

7. Allow to chocolate to fully harden (approximately 20 to 30 minutes) before handling the candy. Store the finished chocolates in an airtight container at room temperature until ready for use.
