Instructions:
- Prepare the Citrus: Peel and separate the citrus into individual segments.
- Prepare the Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil (if using) over a double boiler or in the microwave in 15–20 second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Dip the Citrus: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Dip each citrus segment halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. You can also drop the citrus pieces 1–2 at a time into the chocolate, then pick them up with a fork and let the excess chocolate drizzle off. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Add Toppings (Optional): While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle flaky sea salt, chopped nuts, or sprinkles over the dipped segments.
- Set the Chocolate: Place the tray in the refrigerator for about 20–30 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set.
- Serve & Enjoy! Enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
