Description

These dark chocolate dried apricots are both sweet and salty with a hard dark chocolate shell and chewy apricot center! So easy and the perfect little snack to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Ingredients

  • 1-⅔ cup Dairy-free Dark Chocolate Chips (about 10 Oz)
  • 50  Dried Apricots
  • Coarse Sea Salt

Preparation

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Melt dark chocolate. I recommend using a double boiler but you can melt it any way you please. For the double boiler method, any heatproof bowl such as stainless steel or glass will do, just nestle it over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the water is not touching the bottom of the bowl. Place the chocolate chips in the bowl, stirring over the simmering water until almost entirely melted.

Using a toothpick, dip each dried apricot into the melted chocolate and swirl it around until it’s completely coated. Drop the chocolate-covered apricot on the parchment paper then sprinkle some sea salt on top. Repeat with remaining apricots.

Let the dark chocolate covered apricots cool and harden on the parchment paper for about 1 hour. then place them in a tupperware and keep in the refrigerator.
