Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Servings 2 Cups

Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Roasted pecan halves (200 g / 7 oz)
  • 2 Cups Chopped chocolate (340g / 12 oz)

Instructions

  1. Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, and melt the chocolate using 30 seconds increments.

  2. Place 10 pecan halves in the melted chocolate and use a fork to dip the pecans and coat them with chocolate.

  3. Tap the pecans against the edge of the bowl to remove access chocolate.

  4. Place the pecans on top of the parchment paper, sprinkle with your choice of toppings and allow to set and cool.

Recipe 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.
