Dark chocolate and apricots were meant to be together. They compliment each other in so many ways. They even like to write poems to each other.
Chocolate:
Dear apricots how do I love thee? Let me count they ways...
One, you are soft and chewy
Two, you are the color of a beautiful sunrise
Three, you are not too sweet.
Four, you are perfectly filling.
Apricot:
Oh dark chocolate how do I love thee? Let me count the ways....
One you are rich.
Two, you are sweet but not too sweet.
Three, you are chocolate. Enough said.

Those look so yummy! As a nursery school teacher, I was once given these as a holiday gift. They made a great gift, especially since the child had helped to make them and they were a little lighter and healthier than all of the cookies that I usually get!
yum! definitely the perfect snack :)
Perfect way to enjoy a sweet treat and not feel guilty about it. Healthy dark chocolate and good for you apricots. Yum!
Those look so pretty - what a perfect idea for a party....
Awesome idea. My best bud loves apricots. I'm going to whip some up for her as a surprise!
What a cute post, and a delightful little snack. These would be great to serve after dinner before the main dessert is on the table.
I just found your blog from the comment you left on mine. Love it! These chocolate-covered apricots look delicious!
I was TOTALLY thinking about making something like this the other day! Then I ate my whole package of dried apricots within 24 hours. And realized maybe it wasn't the best idea since I obviously can't control myself around PLAIN dried apricots...let alone chocolate-covered ones.
