Instructions
Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and very lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
Add the 24 ounces milk chocolate chips to a large microwave-safe bowl and heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals. Stir between intervals until completely melted and smooth.
Add 1 (8-ounce) container thawed whipped topping to the bowl and fold until completely combined and smooth. Pour into the prepared baking pan and smooth over the top.
Chill the baking pan in the freezer for 30-60 minutes. Once fully chilled, remove from the pan and slice into 36 squares. Return to the freezer until the chocolate is ready for dipping.
Melt 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until completely smooth and melted.
Carefully and quickly dip each piece of chilled candy in the melted chocolate until fully coated, then tap off the excess chocolate and place either on a parchment-lined baking sheet or a lightly greased wire rack over a piece of parchment.
Allow the chocolate to fully harden before serving.
