Ingredients
- 1 cup Raisins
- 1 cup Chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk)
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
Directions
Step 1
Measure out 1 cup of raisins and ensure they are free of any clumps. Set them aside.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil (optional, to help the chocolate melt smoothly).
Step 3
Microwave the chocolate chips on HIGH for 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. This should take about 1 to 2 minutes total depending on your microwave’s power.
Step 4
Once the chocolate is melted, pour the raisins into the bowl and stir thoroughly to coat all the raisins evenly in the chocolate.
Step 5
Using a fork or a small spoon, transfer the chocolate-coated raisins onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate, spreading them out so they do not clump together.
Step 6
Let the chocolate-covered raisins cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 15 minutes if you want them to set faster.
Step 7
Once the chocolate is firm, transfer the raisins to an airtight container for storage, or serve immediately as a snack.
