Ingredients
  

2 ripe peaches, pitted and cut into wedges

1 cup dark chocolate chips (or your preferred chocolate)

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

1 teaspoon sea salt (for garnish)

1 teaspoon crushed nuts (optional, for a crunchy topping)

A sprinkle of cinnamon (optional, to enhance the flavor)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: Begin by washing and drying the ripe peaches thoroughly. Slice the peaches into wedges, making sure to remove the pits. You can opt for thicker wedges for a more substantial treat or thinner slices if you prefer a lighter snack.

    Freeze the Peach Wedges: Lay the peach wedges in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Ensure they are not touching to prevent sticking. Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the peach wedges for about 1-2 hours, or until they are firm to the touch.

      Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, add the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Heat the mixture in the microwave on medium power for 30 seconds at a time. Remove the bowl and stir after each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat, as chocolate can burn easily.

        Dip the Peaches: Once the peach wedges are frozen, take them out of the freezer. Dip each frozen wedge into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. If you prefer, gently tap the wedge against the side of the bowl to get rid of extra chocolate.

          Add Garnishes: While the chocolate is still wet on the peach wedges, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each one for a delicious contrast. If you are using crushed nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon, this is the perfect moment to add them on top.

            Set the Chocolate: Place each chocolate-coated peach wedge back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Once all the wedges have been dipped and garnished, return the baking sheet to the freezer for an additional 30 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden completely.

              Serve: Once the chocolate has set firmly, your Frozen Chocolate Dipped Peach Bites are ready to be savored! Serve them immediately for the best experience, or transfer them to an airtight container and store in the freezer for up to a week.
