Tips:
To easily melt the chocolate chips (and not burn the chocolate) for the chocolate dip pour them into a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup (like a glass pyrex measuring cup) and microwave for 30 second increments. Make sure to take it out and stir it in between each time. Once you see that the chocolate chips are almost completely melted when you take it out to stir, its done (should take somewhere between 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds depending on your microwave).
