    Dairy Free Chocolate Medal

    February 6, 2022 by burntapple 2 Comments

    The Olympics are here and this fun food craft is sure to be a hit! Made with two ingredients...dairy free chocolate chips and edible food color spray or dust! (GF, DF, SF, NF, Egg Free, Keto option)

    Ingredients

    The ingredient list is simple for this recipe! All you need is:

    • Chocolate Chips
    • Gold or silver food spray or dust
    • Ribbon
    • Muffin pan or circle cookie cutters
    • Plastic straws

    Substitutions

    If you are needing to make some substitutions for this recipe, it's very simple to do.

    • Chocolate chips: It's very simple to substitute dairy free chocolate chips like Enjoy Life or sugar free chocolate chips like Lily's.

    Where Can I Find The Gold and Silver?

    There are several different types of gold and silver you can use to decorate the chocolate medals.

    • Gold or silver food spray: This is easy to find at baking stores. We found our food color spray at Michael's. It comes in a spray can. **Just a note: This was rated as the funnest method. The kids loved spraying the gold food spray but were not too fond of the flavor of the food spray. The color will also will rub off on hands when they go to eat it.
    • Gold or silver food dust: Like sprinkles, these can be added instead and give a nice textured look to the chocolate medals. **Note: Gold dust may flake off and make for dirty hands!

    • Decorating with Edible Food Spray: Once you allow the chocolate to harden, remove the chocolate from the molds. Spray with edible food spray. Allow food spray to set.
    • Edible food dust: To use, pour chocolate into molds. Sprinkle generously with edible food dust. Allow chocolate to set. Remove from molds once chocolate is set. Add additional food dust if needed.

    Diagnosed with colitis ten years ago and with three young children I had to learn to cook. But life was busy and there wasn't a lot of time to cook or figure out what I could eat!
