Chocolate spoons are loads of fun to prepare. Who doesn’t enjoy creating with chocolate and candy canes?
We are making up a big batch of chocolate covered spoons to include with our Hot Chocolate Mix this Christmas. Chocolate Spoons are lovely swirled through Hot Chocolate or Coffee for a rich, delicious taste. You can use any good quality chocolate We used Lindt Dark Chocolate but you could make them in any type of chocolate – milk, dark, or white. You can leave them plain or decorate them with crushed candy canes or sprinkles. Whatever takes your fancy!
Method:
1. Wash and dry spoons. We used metal spoons but you could use plastic.
2. Place candy canes in a ziploc bag and crush with a rolling pin.
3. Melt chocolate.Spoon the melted chocolate onto the spoons, and smooth with a knife. Top with shards of candy cane. Allow to set. You can speed up the process by placing them in the fridge for 15 minutes.
Wrap each chocolate spoon in a clear cellophane bag and tie with a ribbon. Chocolate spoons are such a decadent treat, and perfect for gift giving to chocolate and coffee lovers.
Yummm…… We may need to make another batch before Christmas.

I love dipping these into my coffee. I’ve never tried them with crushing candy cane bits, which is such a great idea, and makes the spoons even prettier.
I will be making these to put with my hot choc mixes for Christmas too! Thank you for always sharing your ideas!
What a great idea for hot chocolate! I wish I lived in a cold climate so that I could curl up with a hot choccy and a chocolate covered spoon right now 🙂
These look really great. I was thinking that a little bourbon in the chocolate could be a hit. I definitely need to make some. Thanks for the post.
I love this idea I will be whipping up some of these over christmas for sure!

This sounds so tasty. It would almost be a shame to eat them because they look so good!
what do you use for spoons?
We used metal spoons that we purchased from a discount store, but plastic spoons would also work well.
You can use any flavor of extract in the melted chocolate… i love to put almond extract in it but just takes alittle bit.. just use your imagination you can use more than one flovor in each batch also…

I USED TO MAKE THESE WITH WOODEN SPOONS. I LIKE THE IDEA OF USING PLASTIC SPOON SO THEY CAN BE GIVEN AWAY AS GIFTS.
