For a deeper chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips. Toast the pecan halves lightly in a dry skillet before coating for enhanced nutty flavor. A sprinkle of sea salt on top of the chocolate before it sets adds a delightful salty-sweet contrast. Use a double boiler for more precise temperature control to prevent the chocolate from seizing. For a festive touch, sprinkle chopped nuts or sprinkles over the chocolate before it sets.
