Fruit Bouquets' How to Make Chocolate Covered Football Apples

Here's a Fruit Bouquets DIY to get you ready for the Big Game.

Step 1: Gather Materials

You will need:

• Apples
• Apple cutter
• Knife
• Icing writer
• Chocolate dipping sauce or Semi Sweet chocolate chips
• Lemons

Step 2: Wash & Dry Apples

• Washing your apples can lessen the risk of ingesting harmful substances, such as pesticides or bacteria.

Step 3: Cut Apples

• Use an apple cutter to cut apples into wedges. The apple cutter will easily remove the core of the apple and give you what you can consume.
• A knife can also be used. Cut one inch away from the center to keep away from the core.

Step 4: Soak Apples in Lemon Juice

• Soak the apples in lemon juice for 5-10 minutes. This will prevent the apples from browning.
• Remove from the juice and dry completely.

Step 5: Dip Apples in Chocolate

• If you are using semi sweet chocolate chips, place them in the microwave until melted.

Step 6: Refrigerate Apples Briefly

• For the chocolate to dry, place apples in the refrigerator for approximately 5-10 minutes.
• It is important not to keep them in for too long or the chocolate could crack when brought back to room temperature.

Step 7: Draw Laces

• Draw the laces to complete your delicious chocolate covered football treats.
• Use your icing writer to draw as seen in the picture above.
