Watermelon Bites Dipped in Chocolate
How to Make Chocolate Covered Watermelon Bites – A Quick, Easy, and Refreshing Summer Dessert or Snack Idea
Equipment
- Wooden Appetizer Forks
Ingredients
- 1 Whole Watermelon Seedless
- 2 bags Chocolate Chips
- 1 tbsp Coconut Oil
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set out all your garnishing ingredients so they’re ready to go.
- Slice the watermelon into 1-inch thick strips, then cut each strip into 1-inch cubes. Insert a wooden appetizer fork into each cube for easy dipping.
- Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a candy melt pot. Melt while stirring with a silicone spatula until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Carefully dip each watermelon cube halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Quickly sprinkle your favorite garnishes on the dipped chocolate while it’s still wet so they stick well. Arrange the finished bites back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
- Chill the tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens and sets completely.Serve your chocolate covered watermelon bites immediately while cold—and enjoy every juicy, chocolatey bite!
