Instructions
Gather your colored sugar and decorative sprinkles, placing them on a plate or in small bowls nearby for easy access. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Place the chocolate in the top of the double boiler over medium heat. Once water boils, reduce heat to a low simmer. Stir the chocolate as it begins to melt, it will take about 5 minutes. Stir until smooth.
Using a fork, dip the first 3 or 4 cookies, one at a time, until fully coated with chocolate. Be sure to tap the fork on the edge of the pan and jiggle the fork gently side to side to remove excess chocolate. Carefully lay each cookie on the sheet pan.
Working quickly, decorate the first 4 cookies as desired. If needed, gently press embellishments to adhere them to the cookie. Repeat this process until the chocolate is gone.
Allow the chocolate to set completely, about 30 minutes. Cookies can be refrigerated to speed the setting process. Store cookies in an airtight container or in the refrigerator for up to one week. Recipe makes 25 to 30 dipped cookies.

Notes
How to successfully melt chocolate:There are two ways to melt the chocolate for dipping. You can melt chocolate in the microwave or you can use a double boiler. I've used both methods and the double boiler is much easier to control. It will also keep your chocolate warm for a longer period of time, as you decorate the cookies.If you use a microwave and your chocolate seizes up, add a teaspoon of coconut oil to loosen it up again. Stir it in and it should become smooth.
