Equipment

Parchment paper or silicone baking mat

Ingredients

3 clementine oranges (or any type of orange you prefer)
The zest of one of those oranges
3/4 cup dark chocolate chips or chopped chocolate

Instructions

Add the chocolate chips to a pot on the stove set to low heat.
Stir constantly until the chocolate has melted and there are no solid lumps remaining, then remove the pot from the heat.
Transfer the melted chocolate to a bowl.
Use a grater or zester to remove the zest from one of the oranges, then reserve.
Peel the oranges and gently pull the segments apart to separate them.
Dip an orange segment halfway in melted chocolate, place it on a plate lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, then immediately sprinkle on a pinch of orange zest.
Repeat step 6 with the rest of the orange segments.
Place the plate of chocolate oranges in the fridge to harden for at least 45 minutes before serving.

Notes

Store these chocolate dipped oranges in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
