Ingredients
Scale
- 24 standard-sized spoons
- 16 oz high-quality chocolate
- 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder
Instructions
- Chop chocolate into small pieces (use a combination of white and dark if you’re planning on making swirls).
- Make sure the spoons are clean and dry, then set them on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Set the handle of the spoons on the edge of the pan to make the well of the spoon level (if the edge is too high, try the handle of a wooden spoon or something similar).
- Place the chocolate in a small microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir well. Continue this in 30-second increments until the chocolate is almost melted but is not melted completely (reduce the time to 10-15 seconds as you go if necessary). Once the chocolate pieces are all almost melted but there are still a few pieces that remain, stir the chocolate vigorously until it’s completely melted and smooth. Add in the espresso powder and mix until evenly incorporated.
- Dip each spoon into the chocolate and let cool. Repeat this step once more to get a thicker layer on each spoon.
- Immediately add any toppings, then repeat the process with all the remaining spoons.
- Allow the chocolate spoons to set at room temperature until the chocolate has completely cooled and hardened. We used sprinkles, white chocolate drizzle, and crushed candy canes. But you can use whatever toppings you like!
- Wrap in a clear plastic bag and tie with a bow.
