Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 1 small seedless watermelon, cut into 1-inch thick wedges
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate (60–70% cacao)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- Flaky sea salt for sprinkling
Instructions
- Prepare the Watermelon: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pat the watermelon slices dry with a paper towel to help the chocolate stick.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil (if using) until smooth, stirring frequently.
- Dip and Sprinkle: Dip each watermelon slice about one-third of the way into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place dipped slices onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each with a pinch of flaky sea salt while the chocolate is still wet.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the slices for 15–20 minutes or until the chocolate hardens. Serve chilled.
