Chocolate-Covered Anything

1. 1

2. 2

   Remove from heat, but keep over hot water while you're working.

3. 3

   Dip desired food into the chocolate, one at a time, lifting quickly from the mixture and tapping fork or tong lightly against the bowl to let excess chocolate drip off.

4. 4

   Place on a wire rack (to make cleanup easy, place a sheet of waxed paper underneath the rack.)

5. 5

   Store in a cool place or in the refrigerator.

6. 6

   Makes enough to dip 60 mini pretzels or 2 pounds of fruit.
