CHOCOLATE FOR DIPPING
Steps:
- Line baking sheet with waxed paper; set aside.
- Remove candy to be dipped from refrigerator about 10 minutes before dipping. Dipping cold centers can result in cracked coating or bloom (white crystals) on coating.
- Place chocolate chips and shortening into 2-cup glass measuring cup. Place measuring cup into bowl which contains very warm (100°F to 110°F) water reaching halfway up measuring cup. (Don't let even one drop of water mix with chocolate.) Stir mixture constantly with rubber spatula 18-22 minutes or until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. (Do not rush melting process.) Replace water with more very warm water, if necessary. Remove measuring cup from bowl; continue stirring 2-3 minutes or until chocolate is cooled slightly.
- Set one candy center onto tines of fondue fork or 2 pronged fork. Completely dip center into melted chocolate. Gently tap fork against side of measuring cup to remove excess melted chocolate. Invert candy onto prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining centers. Place measuring cup into bowl of very warm water, if melted chocolate becomes too thick for dipping; stir until desired consistency.

THE BEST DIPPING/COATING CHOCOLATE EVER!
The most wonderful chocolate in which to dip almost anything! My Mom gave me this recipe years and years ago. I can't believe how many things I can find to dip into it, besides my fingers! The addition of the food-grade paraffin gives beautiful snap and finished gloss when your chocolate project is completed.

Steps:
- Chop the paraffin into small pieces.
- Melt the paraffin in the microwave, or on top of a double-boiler. (This takes quite a while, so be patient.).
- When the paraffin is melted, add the chocolate.
- Stir all together.
- If using the microwave, continue heating for 1-minute intervals, using 50% power, until everything is well-blended. Be sure to stir your mixture between 1-minute heatings. If using a double-boiler, stir the chocolate/paraffin mixture constantly until fully mixed.
- Dip marshmallows, nuts, dried fruit, cookies, pretzels, or whatever you like.
- Fresh fruits should be at the peak of ripeness. After rinsing your fresh fruit, you need to be sure it's patted completely dry. (Chocolate will not cling to wet fruit.).
- After dipping, place on a waxed-paper lined cookie-sheet and allow to harden. 15 minutes to 1 hour, depending on ambient temperature.

Steps:
- Remove the chilled candy from the refrigerator about 10 minutes before coating (dipping cold centers can result in cracked coating).
- Place the chocolate chips and shortening in a 2-cup measuring bowl.
- Place the bowl into a larger bowl which contains very warm water (about100-110F) the water should reach only halfway up the 2-cup bowl with the chocolate (DO NOT LET EVEN 1 DROP WATER MIX WITH CHOCOLATE!).
- Stir mixture constantly with a small spatula until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth (this should take about 16-18 minutes, do not rush the melted process).
- If necessary replace the water with more very warm water.
- remove the 2-cup bowl with melted chocolate from the water and continue to stir until all the chocolate is cooled slightly (about 2-3 minutes).
- Set one candy onto a two-pronged fork, then completely dip candy into melted chocolate.
- Gently tap the fork against side of the bowl to remove any excess melted chocolate.
- Place onto baking sheet lined with waxed paper.
- Repeat with remaining candy.
- If the chocolate becomes too thick for dipping, place the bowl containing the chocolate into the bowl with warm water until desired consistancy.
- TIPS ON HOW TO WORK WITH DIPPING CHOCOLATE.
- Avoid all types of moisture when melting the chocolate, any steam or drops of moisture can cause the mixture to :seize" or become very firm, crumbly and grainy, if this occurs it can be corrected by stirring in 1 teaspoon shortening for each 2 ounces of melted chocolate.
- Chocolate can also be melted over low heat in a double boiler.
- Store the chocolate tightly wrapped in a cool dry place, do not refrigerate.

Steps:
- Melt 1 1/2 pounds chocolate in top of a double boiler (or clean metal bowl set over simmering water). Remove chocolate from heat when it reaches between 110 and 115 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
- To bring into tempering range, add remaining chocolate to the mixture and stir constantly with a rubber spatula until the thermometer registers 82 to 84 degrees. Put chocolate back over the hot water and bring temperature to between 88 and 91 degrees. Be careful not to let the temperature fall too far or you will have to gently re-warm the mixture; if the temperature rises above 91 degrees in the tempering step, you will have to start the process over.
- Once tempered, use immediately for dipping. Store tempered chocolate at room temperature.

Steps:
- Cut a strip of baking parchment and leave to one side. To melt the dark chocolate, fill a small pan with 2cm water and bring to a simmer. Put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl and rest it on top of the pan, ensuring the bowl isn't touching the water. Stir the chocolate to gradually melt it. Or, melt the chocolate in 20 second blasts in the microwave, stirring after each blast until melted. Put the melted chocolate in a small deep bowl.
- Gently hold the strawberries by the leafy top and dip into the chocolate. Tap off any excess chocolate and put on the parchment to set. If you have any leftover chocolate, pour it onto another strip of parchment and leave it to set, it can be used again.
- If you'd like to decorate the strawberries, melt the white and milk chocolate and drizzle lightly over the fruit.

DIPPED CHOCOLATE ANYTHING
Tempering chocolate is not hard, but it's a little bit tricky. You definitely need a candy thermometer (old-fashioned or digital) to measure three or four temperatures: roughly 115 degrees Fahrenheit and 91 and 88 degrees. Melt the chocolate slowly in a double boiler to about 115 degrees. Then to bring the temperature to dipping perfection (91 degrees), add more unmelted chocolate to the pot until the temperature is 91. At that point you can start dipping - fruit, graham crackers, cookies - whatever. When the chocolate reaches 88 degrees, if it lasts that long, the dipping must stop. But don't worry, you can reheat the chocolate.
