- Let the hearts harden for about 20 minutes.
- Prepare the chocolate by adding the white chocolate into a small heat safe bowl, the dark chocolate to another and the candy melts to another bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to the white and dark chocolate. Melt one bowl at a time in the microwave for 30-second intervals until fully melted.1 ¼ cup white chocolate chips, 1 cup pink candy melts, 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, 1 teaspoon coconut oil, pink or red food coloring
- Take a heart and dip the side or the top into the melted chocolate. If you like you can use a spoon to spread chocolate on the top of the hearts. Another option is to use a ziptop bag as a piping bag with a tiny hole cut in one edge to create thin lines. Place the hearts on parchment paper and add the sprinkles. Let the hearts set completely before serving.sprinkles
