    Christmas: Chocolate Coffee Spoons

    Source of Recipe

    Internet

    Recipe Introduction

    For the coffee lover on your list!

    List of Ingredients

    2 cups (12 ounce package) chocolate chips, white chocolate chips or candy melts
    35 to 45 heavy-duty plastic spoons
    2 teaspoons solid shortening (optional)
    2 large cookie sheets or jelly roll pans
    waxed paper
    heat-proof glass measuring cups

    Recipe

    Cover cookie sheets with waxed paper.

    Place one cup of chocolate chips or candy melts in heat-proof measuring cup. A smaller, deeper cup gives best results.

    Microwave chocolate chips or candy melts at 50% power for 1 minute. Remove cup and stir. Continue microwaving at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds, until chocolate is melted and smooth. DO NOT over-heat chocolate.

    To thin chocolate, add 1 teaspoon solid shortening per cup of chocolate chips. Stir gently.

    Dip plastic spoons in melted chocolate to cover the bowl of the spoon.

    Remove excess chocolate by tapping tip gently against the side of the measuring cup.

    If chocolate thickens, return to the microwave for 30 seconds at 50% power, stir gently.

    Repeat with second cup of chocolate chips or candy melts.

    Cool thoroughly before wrapping individually.

    YIELD: 35 to 45 Chocolate Coffee Spoons
