Set aside at room temperature while you prepare the chocolate
Chocolate apples
Melt your chocolate with the coconut oil
Cut your apples into 1 inch thick rounds
Dip each apple round into the chocolate and let sit in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to harden up
With a pairing knife poke the bottom of the apple and stick the paper straw into it
