INSTRUCTIONS
Recipe by: Sunset magazine Prep and cook time: 40 minutes Makes: About 200 (3 lb) Pat fruit completely dry. Place chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons shortening in top of a double broiler; set aside. Fill bottom pan with 1 inch water. Over medium heat, bring water to steaming (120 degrees). Remove from heat, place pan with chocolate chips over water and stir until melted, about 5 minutes. Dunk aprictos into chocolate to coat halfway, letting excess drip off; then place pitted side down on baking sheets lined with plastic wrap. Chill until chocolate firms, about 15 minutes. Serve fruit, chill airtight up to 2 weeks or freeze up to 1 month. Posted to recipelu-digest Volume 01 Number 184 by Mandy Rose Bell <mbell@gladstone.uoregon.edu> on Oct 30, 1997
