Chocolate Drizzled Butterscotch Apple Slices

1 large apple
1 cup Hershey's Butterscotch Chips
3 teaspoons shortening (do not use butter,
    margarine, spread or oil), divided
1/4 cup Hershey's Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Line tray with wax paper. Wash apple; dry thoroughly. Remove core; cut into 8 slices. Blot dry with paper towels.

Place butterscotch chips and 2 teaspoons shortening in medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH (100%) 30 seconds or until chips are melted when stirred.

With fork, dip each slice completely into mixture. Tap fork and gently shake to remove excess; place slices on prepared tray.

Place chocolate chips and remaining 1 teaspoon shortening in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH 15 seconds or just until chips are melted when stirred. With tines of clean fork, drizzle over top of apple slices.

NOTE: If coating mixture begins to thicken and tighten, stir in additional shortening, 1/2 teaspoonful at a time. Microwave at HIGH 15 seconds until smooth and fluid when stirred.
