Ingredients

  • 1 apple
  • 1 c. dark chocolate melting chocolate or candy melts
  • 1/4 c. white chocolate melting chocolate or candy melts
  • 1 Tbs. sprinkles

Instructions

  1. With the apple sitting on a cutting board, core pointed straight down, slice slices off apples so that you have 1-2 inch flat surface on each. Slice each apple into thick slices - about 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch thick. (One apple should yield 3-4 slices.) Remove seeds from slices. Pat slices dry and set on a piece of paper towel.

  2. Lay a piece of parchment paper or silpat on a clean counter.

  3. Place dark chocolate in a shallow bowl and melt in the microwave, on 30 second intervals, stirring until completely melted. Repeat with white chocolate in a separate bowl (doesn't need to be shallow.)

  4. Insert skewer or popsicle stick into the bottom of each apple slice (may need to use a knife to slit a whole in the bottom, if using a popsicle stick).

  5. Working quickly, dip apple slices first in dark chocolate, turning and using a spoon if needed to coat complete. Tap gently to allow excess dark chocolate to drip back into bowl. Place on prepared parchment paper or silpat. Continue with dark chocolate.

  6. Use a spoon to drizzle dark chocolate-covered apple slices with a bit of white chocolate. Top with sprinkles. Allow to sit on the counter until chocolate sets.

  7. Serve immediately or cover. Apple slices are best if eaten within 24 hours.
