Ingredients
  

  • 7 ounces dark chocolate
  • 15 pieces of pineapple
  • 2 tablespoons salt or tajin

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and line the pineapple in a single layer on top. Use a towel to blot away excess moisture from the pineapple. You can use a cloth towel or a paper towel.
  • Flash freeze the pineapple in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • In the meantime, melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chocolate by microwaving on high at 30-second intervals for 2 minutes. Stir between each interval.
  • Take the pineapple out of the freezer and use a fork to skewer each one. Dip half of each pineapple piece in the chocolate and lay back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Immediately top the chocolate-dipped pineapple with a sprinkling of either flakey sea salt or tajin.
  • Let set at room temperature. Enjoy!

Notes

Drying the pineapple off before flash freezing really makes a difference. The chocolate is then able to stick onto the pineapple.
