Welcome to our weekly Foodie Friday link up! I’m linking up with Annmarie from the Fit Foodie Mama, Esther from Chocolate Runner Girl + Jess from Hello To Fit to create awesome healthy recipes each week! This week’s theme = Healthify A Favorite Sweet!
Well, Choctoberfest is over (check out this year’s + last year’s! :P ), but that doesn’t mean we can’t still have nice chocolate-y things! I made this recipe because I was in the mood for a quick but super easy snack, and I don’t know about you, but chocolate-dipped fruit is where it’s at for me! The chocolate-dipped strawberries at Lewisburg’s annual Chocolate Festival were always my favorite!
I have a bunch of packs of dried mangoes and also happened to have a bar of Divine Chocolate left over from the last Choctoberfest, so combined with some laziness, this recipe was born!
You can use chocolate chips or really any type of meltable (one would hope chocolate would be meltable?) chocolate for this endeavor!
Chocolate Dipped Mangoes
Ingredients
- 1 bag 100g or 3.53 oz of dried mangoes
- 1/2 5.3 oz Divine Baking Bar 70% Bittersweet Chocolate
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in 20-30 second increments in the microwave.
- Dip dried mango pieces in melted chocolate and lay on parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Cool in fridge or freezer for ~1 hour.
