How to Make Perfect Dipping Chocolate
- In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt 12 ounces of shortening. Ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
- Once completely melted, remove from heat and stir in 1 pound of chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk, dark, or a combination).
- Stir gently and continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
- Pour the melted dipping chocolate into a shallow, heat-resistant dish. Ensure that the dish is not too deep, as you need a relatively small amount of chocolate to coat the item being dipped.
- Dip your desired treats into the chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place coated items on wax paper to set.
