Chocolate dipped dried apricots and plums
Ever get a 3 pm craving for something sweet? I do. This was a snack that was offered at a recent health and cooking conference I attended, called Healthy Kitchens Healthy Lives. This snack uses two ingredients: dried fruit and melted dark chocolate. In this recipe, I used dried apricots and dried plums.
This snack plus a few spicy nuts creates a flavourful snack that is satisfying and pleasurable. And when you are done, you can lick the pot!
- Dark chocolate, melted
- Dried apricots
- Dried plums
- In a small pot, over low heat, melt the chocolate.
- Dip half of each piece of fruit in the pot of melted chocolate. Place on a wax or parchment paper-lined baking tray. Allow chocolate to set. Store in an air-tight container.
