A playful, sweet-and-salty snack, these Chocolate Covered Pickles from Flouring Kitchen turn tangy pickle slices into a fun, crunchy treat in under 20 minutes. Using just three ingredients—pickles, semisweet (or dark) chocolate, and a bit of coconut oil—this easy recipe combines the bright bite of pickles with glossy, rich chocolate. Finished with flaky salt, each bite delivers a surprising contrast of flavors and textures. Perfect for quirky appetizer spreads, Valentine’s treats, or just to spark conversation, these treats are simple to whip up and delightful to share
1 cup sweet pickle slices (e.g., bread-and-butter), well drained
½ cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips
½ tsp refined coconut oil (or butter)
Flaky sea salt (optional)
Pat pickle slices dry on paper towels—moisture prevents chocolate from sticking
In a microwave-safe bowl (or over a double boiler), melt chocolate and coconut oil in 10-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Dip each pickle slice to coat about halfway, letting excess drip off, then place on parchment-lined tray
Optional: sprinkle with flaky sea salt for extra crunch and flavor
Freeze or refrigerate for 5–10 minutes until the chocolate hardens
Serve chilled and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
