Ingredients
  

For the Bites
  • 1 can Jellied Cranberry Sauce Use canned for best results.
  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips Substitute with milk or white chocolate if preferred.
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil Optional for smoother texture; use vegetable shortening if allergic.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by opening the canned jellied cranberry sauce. Slice the jelly into approximately ½-inch thick discs.
  2. Lay the cranberry sauce slices flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 30 minutes.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave for 1 minute, stir, then heat in additional 15-second intervals until melted.
  4. Remove the frozen cranberry slices and dip each into the melted chocolate using a fork, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
  5. Return the coated bites to the baking sheet and freeze for another 30 minutes or until the chocolate has set.
