Remember when Lauren Conrad had that perfect single tear mascara cry?
…damn her, because now she has the perfect holiday dessert: peppermint chocolate coffee stirring spoons.
UM YUMMMMM.
Really though, these LC-approved treats were such a hit in our house that I couldn’t NOT share the recipe with you guys.
Firstly, if you’re into tea, coffee, & hot chocolate – like the rest of the world – you’ll DIE FOR THESE. And they take like 4 seconds to make. YES, me & my 4 second recipes— the quicker the better, really.
Lauren raves about this unconventional dessert & after testing out these minty spoons, they’re definitely TSC approved. Basically these are portion controlled chocolate treats that you can eat alone ( I may have had 3 to 4 ) OR infuse them in any warm drink ( how good does a hot toddy sound with this?? ).
LC says you need:
Metal spoons
Microwavable bowl
Baking sheet
Parchment paper
White & milk chocolate melting chocolate
Candy cane pieces
How To:
♡ Line a baking sheet with parchment paper & set aside.
♡ Melt either your white or milk chocolate in a bowl in the microwave. Tip: Be sure not to overheat your melting chocolate or else the whole batch will be ruined!
♡ Take your spoons and dip each one in the melting chocolate. Be sure to get as much chocolate as you can on the spoon.
♡ Set each spoon on the baking sheet and sprinkle each one with the candy cane pieces.
♡ Once you’ve repeated these steps for each spoon, allow each spoon to harden completely.
♡ Serve the spoons at place settings, deliver them on cookie plates, or dip them straight into a mug of coffee or hot chocolate. Enjoy!

Ultimately I feel like Lauren Conrad’s chocolate coffee stirring spoons are more memorable that her blackened tear? I mean I guess anything having to do with chocolate outweighs everything.
Too bad Spencer was such an ass to LC, he could have been stuffing chocolate spoons down his throat every Christmas.
Sucks for Speidi.
On that note, happy holidays to the best readers on the planet. Get buzzed, enjoy some chocolate spoons, AND BE MERRY.

These chocolate spoons look so good! I can’t wait to try them. Merry Christmas, Lauryn! <3
Let me know what you think! Merry Christmas Heidi <3
This is perfect! My mom and I always make dark chocolate spoons each Christmas. She has a spoon mold, so we will pour melted dark chocolate into the spoon. Decorate the bottom with sea salt, peppermint, or whatever else. Once they harden, we will drizzle it with some white chocolate. I also package them with fancy coffee’s or hot chocolate mixes. I can’t wait to try this idea too!
Hi Alexis, that sounds so fun! When you put the spoons in hot chocolate do they melt? I’m so curious! Thanks for reading <3
Looks delicious!! Thanks for sharing and have a very Merry Christmas!!
