Steps:
- 1. 1. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminum foil. 2. Crush the candy canes by placing them in a blender or food processor, and pulsing it on/off until the candy is in small pieces. Alternately, you can place the canes in a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to finely crush them. Separate out the large pieces for another use, and place the small shards in a bowl. The crushed candy pieces will get sticky if left for a long time at room temperature, so if you are not going to immediately use them, place them in a Ziploc bag to protect it. 3. Place the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring after every minute to prevent overheating. 4. Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, begin dipping the spoons in the chocolate. Hold a spoon by the tip of the handle and dip it 2/3 of the way into the chocolate. Depending on the shape of your bowl, you may want to use another spoon to ladle chocolate over the back of the spoon, ensuring even coverage. Tap the spoon against the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate, then hold the spoon over the bowl of candy canes pieces. Sprinkle the pieces in a light layer over the front and back of the spoon. Place the spoon bowl-up on the baking sheet, then repeat with remaining candy and spoons. 5. Place the spoons in the refrigerator to set the chocolate for 15 minutes. Once set, the spoons can be packaged and given as gifts. The spoons should be fine in most room temperature environments, but they will start to melt if they get warm. They can be stored for over a month in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- You will also need: 8 spoons; 3 ballpoint pens (or other objects of similar diameter and length-- for propping up spoon handles); sharp scissors.
- Lay your spoons out on a counter side by side, resting the spoons' handles on the pens so that the spoon bowls are level (in other words, when you fill them with liquid, the liquid will be level with the edges of the spoon bowls).
- Microwave the chocolate in the bag until the chocolate is completely melted (keep in mind the bag will be used like a pastry bag, so try to keep the melted chocolate in one corner-- I put that corner in a mug, so it stays upright).
- Alternatively, you can dunk the corner of the bag containing the chocolate in boiling water, until the chocolate melts completely.
- Then with scissors, cut off a*tiny* piece of the corner of the bag (you don't want the chocolate to come out in a very big stream).
- Using it like a pastry bag, squirt a little chocolate into each spoon (you may have to tap the bottom of the spoon on the counter, to level out the dollop of chocolate).
- Allow the spoons to cool undisturbed for one hour, until the chocolate hardens-- you can then store them in a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator for weeks (allow them to come to room temperature before serving, though, so they don't cool your coffee too much!).

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the spoons will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
- Temper the chocolate: Tempering the chocolate will help it set properly and give it a smooth, glossy finish.
- Use a variety of toppings: Get creative with your toppings! You can use anything from nuts and sprinkles to dried fruit and candy.
- Be patient: It takes time for the chocolate spoons to set properly. Don't rush the process, or the spoons will be soft and crumbly.
- Store the spoons properly: Store the chocolate spoons in a cool, dry place. They will keep for up to two weeks.
Conclusion:
Chocolate spoons are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover chocolate. With a little creativity, you can make chocolate spoons that are both beautiful and delicious. So next time you have a hankering for something sweet, try making a batch of chocolate spoons. You won't be disappointed!
