Chocolate Dipped Kiwis
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening Kiwis peeled, sliced & chilled
Place chocolate chips & shortening in a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 1-1 1/2 minutes or just until chips are melted & mixture is smooth when stirred. Allow to cool slightly. Dip kiwi slices about two-thirds of the way into chocolate mixture. Shake gently to remove excess chocolate. Place on wax paper-covered tray. Refrigerate, uncovered, until chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes. |
