Chocolate stir spoons are the perfect way to enjoy a cup of hot chocolate. An easy DIY craft tutorial idea and fun to give as gifts.
Do you love hot chocolate? It is starting to get cold outside and that means it is Hot Chocolate season!
Today I am going to show you how to make Hot Chocolate Stir Spoons. They are the perfect addition to a nice cup of hot chocolate, and they add a little bit more chocolate flavor as well as a hint of peppermint.

How to Make Hot Chocolate Stir Spoons
Begin by laying the spoons out on some wax paper.
I used Chocolate and Vanilla flavored CandiQuik.
I have this fancy squeeze bottle
I also added just a couple of drops of peppermint oil
Carefully squeeze the chocolate into the bowl of the spoons.
I sprinkled some Andes Peppermint Crunch Baking Chips on the spoons before the chocolate sets. These chips are really good plus they make the stir spoons even cuter and are totally worth it.
After the chocolate sets and hardens I wrapped each stir spoon individually in plastic treat bags.
For a cute gift, I added two Hot Chocolate Stir Spoons to a mug with 2 packages of hot chocolate and a candy cane.

These are such a good (and easy!) idea. I'm going to pin these so I'll remember them as an idea for some Christmas gifts.

I've done these before and people love them! There are a million ways to customize them and you can just eat them if you don't want to put them in hot chocolate 🙂
Katie
Good point Julie! I have eaten plenty without hot chocolate! 🙂
Christine
A great DIY for those of us who prefer simpler instructions to follow. Stopping by from the Let's Be Friends party.
Katie
Thank you, Christine! I want to make sure that the maker (you) feels completely confident in what they are creating so they can be proud of the finished product.
