Chocolate Bowls

Chocolate Bowls

1/2 cup chocolate chips
1 T. oil (optional)

Melt chocolate chips.
For microwave: heat in 30-second increments, stirring after each one, until melted.
For stove: Heat in sauce pan over low heat until melted.


 Dip a partially inflated balloon into melted chocolate. Allow chocolate to cool a bit before dipping. (I got too excited and didn't let it cool enough. Balloon popped. Chocolate everywhere....) You might need a spoon or spatula to help spread it around the balloon.


Spoon a small amount of chocolate onto parchment paper to create a base for the bowl. Place chocolate covered balloon on top. Place in fridge to harden.


Oh, and, ya know, there will probably be some chocolate left over. I used some bananas to finish it off :)

 When chocolate has hardened, cut a small hold at the knot of the balloon to slowly release air. If you let too much air out the bowl will crack.
 Carefully peel balloon away from chocolate. (One of mine cracked a little)

Serve with ice cream, brownie, etc.
