How to Make Chocolate Covered Apricots

  2. Add 1 tablespoon of shortening to the melted chocolate.
  3. Stir until the shortening and chocolate are completely blended and smooth.
  4. Dip each apricot halfway into the melted chocolate, gently tapping off any excess. Place the apricots onto wax paper.
  5. Let the chocolate set completely at room temperature (about 15-20 minutes), then refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up the chocolate.
