Tips and Tricks For Chocolate Cowboy Hats:

  • The recipe calls for licorice ropes to represent the ribbon around on the hat, but you can use any candy that you think would work.
  • I used some fruit roll strips that worked nicely.
  • Decorate the hats with more candy for a fancier look.
  • You can use any potato chips that you want, but Pringles are more uniform.
  • You could use a chocolate covered marshmallow instead of a Rolo candy.
  • Chips could also be dipped in white chocolate for a white hat.
  • Chips could also be used without dipping into any chocolate, giving hats more of a straw hat look.

    Can I make these on a Friday for a Saturday event? How soon ahead of an event can they be made and what storage process do you recommend?

      You can make them 2 days ahead and store them on the counter. The best way to store them is in an airtight container, in a cool dry place. They will store great in the refrigerator, without the candy for the rim on them. I hope they turn out great!!:)

    What kind of chocolate? I tried chocolate dippers but they don’t harden, In fact it sat overnight and didn’t harden.

      If your chocolate hasn’t set, there are a few reasons why this could be. It could be that your room temperature is too high. If the temperature is over 68 F, that could be part of the problem.
      I use chocolate chips or Almond Bark or very thick fudge sauce. I guess you could you could also try frosting. I hope this helps. Thanks so much!!
