I dont seem to have those circle type sprinkles (I have those longer ones). Should it still be okay? Thanks!

Down here in the Antipodes we call them "freckles". They used to be 3 for 1c. We'd buy a few before school and suck the chocolate off of them and nibble on the sprinkles for most of the morning while sitting in class.
Ah, remember the good old days when you walked to school unaccompanied and thought you were wealthy when you had 5c.

You mentioned that the coconut oil works similarly to shortening in this recipe - could I use shortening instead of the oil? I'm allergic to coconut, unfortunately. Thanks!

Hi Lauren, if you're allergic to coconut I'd just omit it. I made chocolate buttons sans anything and it turns out just fine, as well.

Why the shortening or coconut oil? Is it to make it shiny and softer? Just wondering.

This looks like a fun and easy project! Just to clarify..the coconut product is supposed to be oil and not milk, is that correct? The ingredients list coconut oil but the directions say to melt chocolate with coconut milk.

99% sure it's supposed to be oil, since it functions like shortening would. I would also suggest using refined since it has a neutral taste, but if you want a hint of coconut go with unrefined/virgin! :)

Hi, BK and Katie,
yes, it's supposed to say coconut OIL! I'm looking into it.

Nonpareils are SO UNDERRATED!! All time favorite movie snack! And while I have an odd affinity (obsession) with the stale, oddly flavored pick & mix movie theater variety, I bet these are way better.

I know, right, Leandra? I think they look cute AND taste good! Better than popcorn :)
