If you love easy, delicious holiday treats, you must try these delightful (pun intended) Chocolate Christmas Lights.

Chocolate shapes decorated with candy eyes and colorful round candies are arranged on a blue plate and a gray surface, surrounded by ornaments and string lights.

Enjoy them as they are, or pipe them onto your favorite cookies or fruit (halved apples and pears work best). You can use only yellow chocolate buttons or even pomegranate seeds.

There’s no right or wrong way to pipe the lights. Just make a few loops in whichever direction. I kept mine relatively compact, but you can spread them out, too.

Recipe Tip

Feel free to swap dark chocolate with white or milk chocolate.
