Sweet Spoons

1 (6 ounce) package chocolate chips
1 (6 ounce) package butterscotch chips
Colored sugar, sprinkles, etc.
Plastic spoons

Put chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chips for 2 minutes on MEDIUM power. In a separate bowl, do the same with the butterscotch chips. Stir chips with a mixing spoon. Let stand 1 minute, then stir again.

Dip a plastic spoon into either the melted chocolate or the melted butterscotch. Before the melted chocolate or butterscotch hardens on the spoon, sprinkle the spoon with colored sugar or sprinkles, if desired.

Place the spoons on plastic wrap to harden.

Wrap the dipped part of each spoon in plastic wrap and tie with ribbon to hold wrap in place.

For giving as gifts, place handle side down in a decorative mug. Give as gifts to be used for stirring hot chocolate or coffee.
