Chanukah Gelt
Gelt means "money" in Yiddish. Another meaning is "gold."
18 large apricot halves
1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate, broken into
bits, or chocolate chips
In small microwave-safe dish, melt chocolate on HIGH for 1 1/2 to 2
minutes, stopping cooking every 30 seconds to stir. Do not overcook or
chocolate will burn. Alternatively, melt chocolate in double boiler over
very low heat until just liquid, being careful not to overcook. Dip
apricots in chocolate, covering approximately half the apricot. Place
dipped apricots on cookie sheet covered with wax paper; chill in
refrigerator until chocolate hardens, about 20 minutes.
