Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 whole ripe pineapple Peeled, cored, and sliced into rings for a juicy base.
  • 1 cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips or bar For a rich, chocolatey coating.
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil Adds smoothness to the melted chocolate.
Optional Toppings
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut For added texture and tropical flair.
  • 1/2 cup crushed nuts For a crunchy texture.
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips For extra chocolate goodness.
  • 1/4 cup nut butter Optional drizzle adds creaminess and flavor.
  • 1/4 cup sprinkles For visual appeal.
  • 1 tsp flaky sea salt For a salty contrast that enhances sweetness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Peel, core, and slice the pineapple into 1-inch rings. Pat each ring dry with a paper towel.
Melting and Dipping
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Don't overheat or it will burn.
  2. Dip each pineapple ring into the chocolate, leaving some pineapple exposed if you like.
Adding Toppings
  1. Sprinkle with toppings while the chocolate is still wet.
Setting
  1. Place the rings on the lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, until the chocolate sets.
Serving and Storing
  1. Serve cold. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days or the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

Optional to drizzle with nut butter for extra flavor. For richer flavor, use dark chocolate.
