Heart Chocolate Apple Pops
These heart-shaped apple pops are dipped in chocolate and topped with festive decorations, making a delicious, healthier Valentine's Day treat!
Servings: 4 apple pops
Ingredients
- 1 apple
- 1 cup white chocolate melted
- red or pink food dye optional
- toppings see ideas above
Instructions
- Cut the apple into 2 slices, about 1/2 inch thick, to the left and right of the core. You should have 4 apple slices to make into pops.
- For the larger slices (the ones closer to the core), use a small heart cutter to cut out a heart in the middle of the apple slice. This is also helpful if there are seeds. For the smaller slices, cut them into a heart using the cookie cutter.
- Use a knife to make a small slit in the bottom of each apple slice. Insert a popsicle stick into the slit, being careful not to push through the cutout.
- Dip the apple pops into the melted chocolate. I find it easiest to melt the chocolate in a mug about the width of the apple. I use a spoon to help get the chocolate all over the apple.
- Lay the apple pop on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and add toppings, if desired.
