My preferred method of melting chocolate is in a Wilton Melting Pot, but you can melt your chocolate in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl as well.Chocolate Chips - Use a name-brand milk chocolate chip. Off-brands or bargain brands use wax and other fillers in them, causing the chocolate to streak and not set up well. Pop out the completely set up and solid chocolate frogs from the molds and place a frog in each box. You can also melt chocolate in a double boiler. Read here for How to Melt Chocolate in a Double Boiler. These melted in less than a minute in the microwave, I tapped the tray repeatedly to get the bubbles out, and the tray was nice and solid. I let them set up while I made other party preparations the night before. Since the frogs are a little dense, I popped them in the fridge to speed the process. Chilling works, but it can give the chocolate a matte white coating. In the future, I'd make these a few days before the party, and have more trays if I needed more than a dozen. I put them in clear, little cellophane treat bags, and tie them with a ribbon. Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate - For best results, use quality chocolate. I highly recommend using the Ghirardelli brand for the dark chocolate. I have tried a lesser brand as well as melting chocolate from a bulk bin store, and both resulted in streaky chocolate frogs because of the higher wax and shortening content in them.

For this recipe, we are going to do a 2-to-1 ratio of dark chocolate to milk chocolate. Dark chocolate on its own is too brittle and hard. Milk chocolate on its own is too soft and melty. Crispy frogs: You can mix in about 1/4 cup of crisped rice cereal if you want your frogs on the crispy side. Easy: These candy frogs are so much fun and are so easy let the kiddos join in the fun of making them Melt the dark chocolate and the milk chocolate together until completely smooth using the melting method of your choice.

Chocolate: You can switch this recipe up with dark chocolate chips or even white ones. Just remember that with white chocolate, you’ll have to use a double boiler.
