tips to make S’mores Bites
- If you don’t have coconut oil, you can simply omit it. It helps make the chocolate smoother but isn’t necessary.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt on the chocolate before it sets.
- If you want a fun twist, try using white chocolate or milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate.
