I made this simple chocolate fruit dip for the Christmas part at my husband’s office and it was so easy and so good!
This recipe is perfect for the holidays because it is quick and easy to make and only calls for a few ingredients.
This is great to dip fruit in, but really I can think of a lot of ways to use this. It would be great used to frost a cake. And I put a little bit of the leftovers in a cup of hot chocolate and it was delicious!
Basically this recipe is for homemade chocolate cool whip. You are making your own chocolate cool whip. Yes, you can sometimes find regular chocolate cool whip, but this is better. It has much more of a chocolate taste.

This looks delicious! How do you keep your apples from browning?

I usually slice the fruit shortly before serving. If it is going to be too long you can also dip the apples in water that has just a little bit of lemon juice added. They still turn brown, but it usually helps some.
