Recipe: Chocolate Almond dipped spoons

My Mom sent me this which has been made for her church bazaar and have been very popular.. I have not had time to try them yet..but wil soon!
4-1oz squares semisweet or sweet dark chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 Tbs whipping cream
1/8 tsp almond extract
20 disposable spoons
2-2oz squares vanilla flavored candy coating, melted

Combine semisweet or sweet dark chocolate and whipping cream in a 1-cup liquid measuring cup. Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) power 1 minute or until chocloate melts, stirring after 30 seconds. Stir in almond extract.

Dip each spoon in melted chocolate covering bowl of spoon and 1/4 inch up handle;allow excess to drip off. Place spoons on waxed paper loned baking sheet; freeze 15 minutes or until set.

Melt vanilla coating and put in heavy duty zip lock bag. Snip tiny hole in one corner of bag, and drizzle coating over chilled spoons. Leave on wax paper and store in fridge until ready to wrap.


I boutght Handi wrap with little X-mas trees and candy canes at a dollar store and plan to wrap about 3 together and tie with curling ribbon. I also guess you can substitute other extract flavors..mint, strawberry, ammeretto etc. for the almond flavoring...Happy dipping :-)
