Christmas Gift Ideas - Chocolate Spoons

Every year as part of our home school we make gift baskets, bags or mugs to give to family and friends. Our family has a wonderful time baking and cooking up a variety of holiday treats.

A favorite of everyone is chocolate spoons. Put them in a holiday gift basket or give with a batch of snowman soup. Just make enough to keep some for yourself!

Chocolate Spoons

Ingredients:

  • Plastic spoons
  • Melting chocolate, white, dark or milk chocolate – we have even used chocolate chips.

What you do:

  1. Melt the chocolate according to the package directions.
     
  2. Dip the spoons into the chocolate, making sure the whole “bowl” part is covered.
     
  3. Lay them on wax paper to harden.
     
  4. Wrap in plastic wrap and tie with a ribbon.

Great for stirring coffee or hot cocoa with!
