Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 12 oz White Chocolate Wafers, Melts, or Bark
- Sandwich size plastic baggie
- Parchment paper
Instructions
- Prepare the Melting Surface: Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper to create a non-stick base for your chocolate shapes.
- Melt the Chocolate: Place the white chocolate wafers in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until fully melted and smooth.
- Fill Piping Bag: Spoon the melted chocolate into the corner of a sandwich baggie. Snip off a very small corner to create a piping tip without opening the hole too large.
- Pipe the Wishbone Base: Starting on the bottom, squeeze a small amount of chocolate to form an oval shape. Without lifting the bag, continue to pipe the left curve of the wishbone, like half a heart, until reaching the top, where you create a second oval by squeezing a bit more chocolate.
- Complete the Wishbone: Lift the bag and return to the bottom oval, then pipe the right side mirroring the left curve to complete the wishbone shape.
- Harden the Chocolate: Transfer the cookie sheet to the fridge and cool for 3-5 minutes to allow the chocolate wishbones to harden completely.
- Serve or Store: Once set, enjoy your wishbones immediately or store them in an airtight container for later indulgence. Note that one 12 oz bag of melts yields approximately two and a half dozen wishbones.
Notes
- Do not cut a large hole in the baggie tip; a small snip gives better control for shaping.
- Make sure to stir the chocolate well between microwaving intervals to prevent burning.
- Use white chocolate wafers or melts for best melting consistency.
- Wishbones should be stored in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
- Chill the chocolate quickly to speed up the hardening process but avoid refrigerating for too long to prevent condensation.
