What Is The Best Chocolate To Use For Making Dipped Graham Crackers
Candy melts or almond bark are both great chocolates to reach for. They dip beautifully and then offer a hardened texture rather fast. If you want to use classic chocolate chips I recommend adding a teaspoon of shortening in to stir around to help the chocolate harden.
Otherwise, you can find your chocolate stays soft and will melt rather fast when you pick it up, making your hands kind of messy. With candy melts, it stays firmer since it has the shortening in it.
Can I Use White Chocolate
Absolutely! Go right ahead and use white chocolate to dip or reach for milk or semi-sweet. All the chocolates will work to use, and taste amazing. Or do a mix of all the flavors if you variety and a mix of look for the covered graham crackers.
Expert Tips
- Make sure to shake off excess chocolate when you dip the graham crackers don’t look clumpy
- You can buy dipping tools to help with dipping in chocolate or use a fork.
- Use parchment paper to lay out dipped graham crackers as they harden.
- Add sprinkles on right away as the chocolate melts fast.
- Decorate any way you want for a theme you are going for.
Storing
You are more than welcome to make these graham cracker treats in advance. You can make them 1-2 days ahead of when you plan to serve. Once the chocolate has hardened you can store the grahams in a sealable bag or airtight container. If you plan to stack just lay some wax paper in between layers to prevent them from sticking.
Store at room temperature or if the house is too warm you can refrigerate them to prevent the chocolate from melting down.
Double The Recipe
Double The Recipe If you plan to serve a large amount go ahead and double, triple, etc the recipe. Just make sure to add the sprinkles on as you go as the chocolate hardens fast.
I love that you can make just 4-5 or 50 of these chocolate covered graham crackers. Such a versatile and simple dessert you can make work for you.
