i always have bad luck microwaving things, so i opted for the double-boiling with this recipe. i added a tablespoon of shortening for every cup of morsels i melted, like someone suggested, and the finish look was glossy. however, after the fourth day, the chocolate "spots" started showing up. so i suggest not making this days in advance like i did. overall, i had a great time, but took almost forever (about 3.5 hours) to finish only 15 spoons.

These are so easy. I made them along with the cranberry hootycreek jar recipie and the cappucino mix. I crushed some mint candy canes and sprinkled the on top before the chocolate set. Very pretty and a nice gift! Thanks!

This is a great recipe to get creative with. For Christmas, I colored white chocolate with food coloring and added a couple of drops of peppermint flavoring. Dipped some in the colored mint, then drizzled with melted chocolate and sprinkled with candy sprinkles. With some, I dipped in chocolate, stuck miniature marshamallows on while still wet, then drizzed the marshmallows with the colored chocolate. Wrapped in little cello bags and tied with curling ribbon, they are an impressive addition to gift baskets with a mug, some coffee, and homemade treats.

My grandson & I made these yesterday, we used ghirardelli double chocolate dipping chocolate to coat the spoons in & drizzled ghirardelli white chocolate on after the chocolate set up. I melted my chocolate (I too added a bit of shortening...about a tbp) in a double boiler because I have had chocolate seize up in the microwave & there's no need to hurry using a double boiler. We sprinkled some w/ colored sprinkles for the grands to use as lollipops. These spoons added a nice touch to our coffee this morning....thanks!

I held a holiday food craft party for a group of friends and these easy-to-make spoons were the hit of the party! So easy, and so rewarding - I highly reccommend. One tip: we lined the spoons on a baking pan layered with wax paper and after the first coat of chocolate, we put the pan in the freezer for 10 mintues. This allowed the chocolate to become firm before adding another layer and gave our spoons a really nice look.

Instead of drizzling milk chocolate on the spoons, I mixed semi-sweet and milk chocolate together while melting. They turned out great.

I like to dip chocolates at Christmas time. I make chocolate spoons out of the leftover chocolate instead of letting it go to waste.

I am planning to try this recipe again at Easter, giving each child a spoon engraved with their name and of course the CHOCOLATE COATING.

My 7 & 9 year old grandgirls made these for a tea party they gave for neighborhood children. It was easy to make and a great hit. We used mint chocolate to drip on the semi sweet. I also melt the chips slowly, microwaving for 30 seconds,stiring, & microwaving again until melted. I find otherwise I risk burning the chocolate.

Yummy :) I make these using spoon molds (I'm not sure where you get them; my mother-in-law gave them to me) and a special kind of chocolate that is used for the molds (higher amount of parafin so that the chocolate hardens and keeps its shape). One note - when making this recipe, make sure you use a high quality (i.e. name brand) of chocolate chips; the store brand doesn't seem to harden back up enough and you end up with a bit of a gooey mess :)

I added a little shortening as suggested by another viewer. I also added crushed peppermint candies to a few and marshmallows and chopped nuts to others with drizzles of dark chocolate. They turned out great. I made them for a craft fair to sell along side our hot chocolate. They were a big hit!!

I made these for Christmas gift baskets, they were a smash hit. After dipping in the chocolate, I used white chocolate chips and dipped half the spoon in. This gave them a great look. Everyone loved them and are asking for more.

Works perfectly. I wrapped mine in a square of cello wrap and tied with a bit of ribbon. Note that if you put them in the fridge right away you may get a sugar bloom (as I did). You may want to let the chocolate cool to room temperature before putting in the fridge - this should avoid the problem.
