Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Put the chocolate chips in a heatproof glass bowl and place it over a pan of simmering water. Heat the chocolate, stirring, until completely melted and smooth.
- Dip each apricot one-half to three-quarters of the way into the chocolate, letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Place on the prepared baking sheet to set.
CHOCOLATE-DIPPED APRICOTS
Steps:
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or waxed paper. Melt and temper the chocolate (see pages 25-30).
- Hold an apricot half securely between your thumb and forefinger, and dip it halfway into the chocolate. Remove the apricot from the chocolate, gently shake off the excess chocolate, and place the apricot half on the paper. Repeat with the remaining apricot halves. Let the chocolate set up at room temperature, or chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Between layers of waxed paper, in a tightly covered container wrapped in several layers of aluminum foil, the apricot halves will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator. They are best eaten at room temperature.
- VARIATIONS
- Substitute dried peaches or dried pears for the apricots. Dip these halfway into the chocolate on the diagonal for an interesting design.

Steps:
- Peel oranges and separate into sections.
- Wrap sections in plastic wrap so they do not dry out.
- Rinse strawberries under cold running water, do not remove the stems.
- Pat berries completely dry with paper towels.
- Set fruit aside.
