White Chocolate Chips can be very difficult to work with. Add more oil if you notice that chocolate is not melting. Lower heat if it becomes like frosting. Be sure to stir continuously until chocolate is melted and is smooth!

 This snack mix is a great kids in the kitchen activity! They can pour, stir, sneak some candy in between stirring, and drizzle the pink chocolate! The easiest way to drizzle chocolate is to place the melted chocolate in a ziploc bag, push the chocolate to one corner, pinch the bag with a chip clip, snip the corner, and drizzle away!
