  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
     6      ounces        semisweet chocolate pieces
     4      ounces        milk chocolate pieces
                          (or white, mint, etc. chocolate)
    20                    plastic spoons
  
  Place a piece of waxed paper on a cookie sheet large enough to hold 20 to 24
 of your plastic spoons.  Place semisweet chocolate pieces in a heavy saucpan
 over low heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate begins to melt.
  Immediately remove from heat; stir until smooth.  Dip spoons into chocolate,
 tapping the handle of the spoon against the side of the pan to remove excess
 chocolate.  Place spoons on waxed paper; refrigerate for 30 minutes or until
 chocolate is set.
  
  Place milk chocolate (or chocolate of your choice) in a heavy saucpan over
 low heat, stirring constantly untilchocolate begins to melt.  Immediately
 remove from heat; stir until smooth.  Place the melted chocolate in a small,
 heavy self sealing bag.  Using scissors, make a small cut in the corner of
 the bag; drizzle on or both sides of the covered spoons, making a decorative
 pattern.  (Small dots, zig-zag lines, circles, etc.)
  
  The above 2 steps can be reversed if you like!  Get 6 ozs. of white
 chocolate to cover the spoons and 4 ozs. of chocolate of your choice to use
 to decorate the spoons.
  
  Refrigerate spoons for 30 minutes to allow chocolate to set.  Wrap each
 spoon separately in clear or colored plastic wrap.  Use ribbon to tie off
 plastic wrap.  Store in a cool dry place for 2 to 3 weeks until ready to give
 as gifts. 
  
  Place chocolate covered spoons in a new coffee mug and give along with
 homemade muffins, scones, biscuits, cookies, etc.
