How to make them:

1. Melt the fillings by placing them in a bowl and heating them on high for 1-2 minutes in a microwave. Stir well with a spoon until the chips have fully melted.

2. Make sure the toppings are small enough to be placed in a spoon. For items such as peppermint candies, an easy method is to place them in a Ziploc bag and crush them against a hard surface.

3. Take the spoons and use them to scoop the chocolate. With the spoonful ready, place the toppings according to flavor and taste preferences.

4. Place wax paper on a plate and put the spoons on the wax paper. Once the plate is full, place it in the freezer so it can harden.

5. After 30–45 minutes, take the spoons out of the freezer and eat. These can be eaten off the spoon or placed in drinks such as hot chocolate, coffee or tea, depending on your preference.
