Dark Chocolate Dipped Apple Slices

I’ll be honest with you…I used to detest chocolate. Milk Chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, in a cake, in a chocolate bar, Hershey kisses, ice cream (forgive me!), you name it I refused to eat it. There was always something very organic about the taste and when I say organic I mean at one point I thought it tasted like dirt. Now days I still don’t seek out chocolate as my go to sweet treat of choice but when it comes to fruit dipped in chocolate I can’t seem to say no. And go figure my chocolate of choice when making this delectable treat is dark chocolate!

This recipe is BEYOND easy and it tastes delicious too! I use granny smith apples because to me the tartness of these apples goes great with the dark chocolate flavor but feel free to experiment with your favorite apple and let me know how it goes! These treats are great for parties or even just if you are craving something sweet and simply want to make a healthier choice than that tub of chocolate ice cream in the freezer. And the toppings are endless! I used pecans, slivered almonds, pink himalayan salt, caramel drizzle, sprinkles, and chili pepper (don’t knock it until you try it!). I hope you give these a try and if you do let me know what you think!
