Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams high-quality dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.25 teaspoons sea salt (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Chop the dark chocolate into small, uniform pieces to ensure even melting.
Set up a double boiler by placing a heatproof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water. Ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water to avoid overheating the chocolate.
Add the chopped chocolate and coconut oil to the bowl, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
If using sea salt and/or vanilla extract, stir them in during the last few seconds of melting for an extra layer of flavor.
Remove the bowl from the heat and allow the chocolate coating to cool slightly for about 2-3 minutes. This ensures it's at the perfect dipping temperature (not too hot to damage delicate ingredients).
Dip your desired items (e.g., strawberries, pretzels, or marshmallows) into the chocolate. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated items on a parchment-lined tray.
Let the chocolate-dipped items set at room temperature or place them in the refrigerator for faster hardening (about 15-20 minutes).
Serve immediately or store the coated treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
