Description
Warning: These Chocolate-Dipped Apricots may disappear faster than you can make them. With just a few ingredients and zero baking, this is the snack your lazy cravings dream of.
Ingredients
- Soft dried apricots
- Good-quality chocolate (dark or milk)
- Snappers (chocolate, caramel, and pretzel treats) or a mix of chopped pretzels, caramels, and chocolate
Instructions
- Melt your chocolate slowly, don’t let it get too runny.
- You want it thick enough to coat the apricots without sliding off.
- Here’s the trick: use cold apricots.
- Pull them straight from the fridge before dipping.
- The chill helps the chocolate stick better.
- Dip each apricot into the melted chocolate, then right away press it into the pretzel-caramel-chocolate mix.
- Set them on a tray and pop them in the fridge until the chocolate firms up.
- Then? Snack time.
Can’t find Snappers?
No problem. Just break up some salty pretzels, slice your favorite chewy caramels into small bits, and toss in chopped chocolate.
