If you’ve been to Universal Orlando and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, you know that you can buy those famous Chocolate Frogs at Honeydukes in Hogsmeade and Sugarplum’s Sweet Shop in Diagon Alley.
However, they are so expensive in the theme parks! Why not make them at home? This is an inexpensive recipe that takes just a few minutes to make. I solemnly swear, you can make these!

Many people are stating that the taste of the chocolate frogs is not good anymore. Plus, these chocolate candies melt in the Florida heat pretty fast, which means you can’t easily bring them home as souvenirs.

How to Make Harry Potter Chocolate Frogs
You only need two ingredients – and a microwave – to make these chocolate frogs!
And you will need frog molds. We have a list of the best chocolate frog molds below the recipe.
Here’s the super simple recipe:
Ingredients
- Wilton Chocolate Melts
- 1 tablespoon of oil (coconut or vegetable oil works best)
Directions
1. In a microwave safe bowl, microwave the chocolate and a tablespoon of vegetable oil for 45-55 seconds. You can melt in 20-25 second increments, stirring the chocolate in between.
2. Pour the melted chocolate into the frog mold, making sure to evenly fill each mold. You can spray the molds with a non-stick spray (such as PAM) if you’d like first, to ensure that they don’t stick.
The chocolate should be level with the plastic on top, not a mound of chocolate in the mold. Otherwise the frogs won’t lay flat.
3. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to harden the candy.
