Chocolate covered pecan
Crunchy, delicious, and easy to make chocolate coated pecans.
Servings 2 Cups
Equipment
- 1 baking sheet
- 1 Parchment paper
- 1 large fork
- 1 microwave safe bowl
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Roasted pecan halves (200 g / 7 oz)
- 2 Cups Chopped chocolate (340g / 12 oz)
Instructions
- Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, and melt the chocolate using 30 seconds increments.
- Place 10 pecan halves in the melted chocolate and use a fork to dip the pecans and coat them with chocolate.
- Tap the pecans against the edge of the bowl to remove access chocolate.
- Place the pecans on top of the parchment paper, sprinkle with your choice of toppings and allow to set and cool.
Notes
- Remove the chocolate from the microwave before it is fully melted and use a rubber spatula to distribute the heat residue and melt.
- For smooth chocolate, use plastic gloves when handling and make sure to store them in one layer.
- Tempered chocolate will set faster and have a smoother, melt-in-the-mouth texture.
