This Chocolate Dipped Mango Slice recipe combines the natural sweetness of dried mango with the rich, smooth taste of melted chocolate.

Once chilled, they create a delightful balance of chewy fruit and crisp chocolate coating.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces dried mango slices
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons neutral oil (such as olive oil or shortening)

Instructions

  1. Set Up Double Boiler: Fill a small pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to a simmer and place a clean, dry bowl over the pot. Ensure the bowl’s bottom is elevated 3-4 inches above the water and fits securely.
  2. Melt Chocolate: Add the mini chocolate chips and neutral oil into the bowl. Let sit for a few minutes to partially melt, then stir continuously with a spoon or spatula until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
  3. Prepare Mango Slices: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Separate the dried mango slices evenly on the parchment. Use clean food prep gloves while handling to maintain hygiene.
  4. Dip Mango Slices: Hold one end of a mango slice and dip the other end into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Then place the dipped slice onto the prepared parchment paper.
  5. Repeat Dipping Process: Continue dipping the remaining mango slices into the melted chocolate until all slices or the chocolate is used up.
  6. Cool to Firm Up: Transfer the baking sheet with chocolate-dipped mango slices to the freezer for 30 minutes or place in the refrigerator for about an hour to allow the chocolate to solidify again.
  7. Serve or Store: Enjoy the chocolate dipped mango immediately after cooling or store them in an airtight container inside the refrigerator for future enjoyment.

Notes

  • Using a double boiler helps prevent the chocolate from burning by gently melting it over simmering water.
  • Make sure to use clean and dry utensils and bowls for melting chocolate to avoid seizing.
  • The neutral oil adds smoothness and shine to the melted chocolate but can be substituted or omitted if preferred.
  • Dried mango slices vary in thickness and sweetness; select quality slices for the best texture and flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent moisture from affecting the chocolate coating.
