Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl.
Melt the chocolate mixture by microwaving in 20β30 second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until smooth and fully melted. Alternatively, use a double boiler to melt the chocolate over low heat.
Once the chocolate is melted, add the raisins to the bowl and stir until they are completely coated in chocolate.
Using a fork or small slotted spoon, remove small clusters of chocolate-coated raisins, letting the excess chocolate drip off, and place them on the prepared baking sheet in small mounds.
Repeat until all the chocolate-coated raisins have been transferred to the baking sheet.
Refrigerate the baking sheet for 20β30 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set.
Once the chocolate is hardened, break apart any large clusters and transfer the chocolate-covered raisins to an airtight container for storage.
Store at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy as a snack or add to trail mix!
