Ingredients
  

3 ripe peaches

1 cup dark chocolate chips (60-70% cacao)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for a smoother texture)

Sea salt or crushed nuts (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: Rinse the peaches thoroughly under cool running water. Carefully slice each peach into wedges, discarding the pit. Arrange the peach wedges on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer to prevent sticking.

    Freeze the Peach Slices: Once all peach slices are cut, place the baking sheet in the freezer. Chill for about 2 to 3 hours, or until the peach slices are completely frozen and firm.

      Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil (if using). Heat in the microwave at 20-second intervals, stirring well between each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Take care not to overheat the chocolate to avoid burning.

        Dip the Peach Slices: Retrieve the frozen peach slices from the freezer. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the slice back on the baking sheet.

          Garnish: For an extra touch of flavor and texture, if desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt or a handful of crushed nuts onto the chocolate-dipped slices before the chocolate begins to set.

            Chill to Set: Return the chocolate-coated peach slices to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Place back in the freezer to set for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened to a firm texture.

              Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has set, serve your Choco-Dipped Frozen Peach Slices immediately for a refreshing treat, or store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
