Chocolate Covered Fruit 
Ingredients 
1 lb bar of chocolate or small chocolates
Assorted fruits for dipping 
Directions:
Break a 1 lb bar of chocolate into small pieces.
Put in a heat safe bowl and heat in the microwave in 10 second spurts stirring after every spurt till the temperature reaches 121 degree Fahrenheit. 
Pour 2/3rd melted chocolate on a cool marble surface and move it around with a spatula till it cools down to 82 degree Fahrenheit. Once it cools down scrape it from the marble and put it back to the bowl and stir rigorously to incorporate the two chocolates into a smooth mix. The temperature should be 92 degrees and it’s ready to be used for dipping.
