Chocolate Goldfish Crackers

1. Begin by melting chocolate chips (or another type of chocolate).
2. Dip each goldfish in the melted chocolate.
3. Allow the fish crackers to dry on parchment paper.
4. Enjoy your homemade treats!

Before you melt the chocolate, prepare your workspace by placing a sheet of parchment paper on a plate. Next, fill a small microwave safe container half full with chocolate chips. Melt the chocolate chips for 30 seconds in the microwave. Stir the chocolate chips, and if needed, microwave them for 30 seconds more, until fully melted.

Next, stir the melted chocolate with a spoon to make sure it’s fully smooth. Dip each goldfish by placing them a few crackers at a time into the melted chocolate. Use a spoon to flip each cracker over once. When fully coated, carefully place each chocolate dipped goldfish onto the parchment paper lined plate.

These chocolate cheddar snacks are fun for a movie night or afternoon snack time. The melted chocolate can get a bit sticky on a warm summer day, so it’s best to enjoy them quickly. If kids like fish crackers and chocolate, then they will likely enjoy the rich flavor of chocolate covered goldfish.
