Chocolate Christmas Candy - Making basic chocolate covered candy really is very easy, and does not require any special equipment. You do need the right chocolate though. You need coating chocolate. Simply melting chocolate chips will not work.

You can buy the coating chocolate at many craft stores, bulk foods stores, or even party stores. You can buy all kinds of chocolate, lite, dark, white and a variety of colors. Since chocolate burns easily, you must melt it slowly. Now, that the chocolate is melted, comes the fun part; the dipping.

The easiest candy simply involves dipping whatever you want to be covered in chocolate into the Chocolate Christmas Candy, tapping off the excess, placing the candy on a sheet of wax paper, and letting it cool. Forks work well for the dipping. Melt. Dip. Cool.
