Ingredients
  

2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced into wedges

1 cup dark chocolate chips (or chocolate of your choice)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for a smoother chocolate dip)

1 teaspoon sea salt (for garnish)

1 teaspoon crushed nuts (optional, for garnish)

A sprinkle of cinnamon (optional, for added flavor)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: Wash and dry the peaches. Slice them into wedges, ensuring you remove the pits. You can cut them into thick slices for a hearty bite or thinner slices for a delicate treat.

    Freeze the Peach Wedges: Arrange the peach wedges in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 1-2 hours, or until the peaches are firm.

      Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until fully melted and smooth.

        Dip the Peaches: Remove the frozen peach wedges from the freezer. Dip each wedge into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off. If desired, you can also gently tap the peach to remove extra chocolate.

          Add Garnishes: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each peach bite. If you're using crushed nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon, now is the time to sprinkle them on as well.

            Set the Chocolate: Place the dipped peach bites back on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Once all the peach wedges are dipped and garnished, return the baking sheet to the freezer for another 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

              Serve: Once the chocolate has hardened, your Frozen Chocolate Dipped Peach Bites are ready to enjoy! Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
