Halloween chocolate apples recipes

1. 1

   Add a few centimetres of water to a small saucepan and set on the hob over a medium heat and bring up to the boil.

2. 2

   Put the chocolate in a small heatproof bowl, using separate bowls for different colours of chocolate - a sturdy pyrex one is ideal.

3. 3

   Once the water in the pan is boiling, set the bowl on top ensuring the base doesnt actually touch the water.

4. 4

   Turn off the heat and allow the chocolate to melt gently, stirring as it does so.

5. 5

   If the chocolate has been finely chopped this should only take a minute or so.

6. 6

   Pierce the centre of each apple, just next to the stalk, and insert a lolly stick in deep so that it feels firmly embedded.

7. 7

   Line a baking sheet with a piece of greaseproof paper and spread the apples out on it.

8. 8

   Use a teaspoon to drizzle thin trails of chocolate around each apple, using the lolly stick to twirl the apple to get an evening coating all over.

9. 9

   Set back on the tray and repeat with the other apples.

10. 10

    Set aside somewhere cool to set.
