Instructions:
- Slice the Apple
Core 1 green apple and cut into thick rings about 1 cm (½ inch). Pat slices dry with a paper towel. - Melt the Chocolate
Place 85 g (½ cup) chocolate chips (and ½ tsp coconut oil if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15–20 second intervals, stirring between each, until completely smooth. - Dip the Apple Rings
Dip each ring into the melted chocolate to coat fully or halfway. Let excess drip off, then place on parchment paper. - Drizzle Peanut Butter
Warm 30 g (2 tbsp) peanut butter for 10 seconds until drizzle-ready. Drizzle over the rings. - Add Toppings and Set
Sprinkle with 15 g (2 tbsp) crushed peanuts and sprinkles if desired. Refrigerate or freeze for at least 30 minutes until fully firm.
Notes:
- Pat apple rings completely dry before dipping — moisture prevents chocolate from sticking.
- Coconut oil makes the chocolate thinner, glossier, and helps it set with a snap.
Storage:
- Fridge for up to 2 days or freezer for up to 1 week. Thaw 5–10 minutes before eating.
Swaps:
- Use almond butter or tahini instead of peanut butter.
- Swap crushed peanuts for shredded coconut or sea salt flakes.
Tips:
- Granny Smith apple gives the best tart contrast with the sweet chocolate.
