Line a cupcake tin with small cupcake liners and set aside. Add hemp seeds to a bowl and set aside.
Melt chocolate in a microwavable bowl at 15-second intervals till almost fully melted or melt chocolate with a double boiler on low to medium heat till fully melted.
Add coconut oil and mix till the mixture is blended and smooth.
Dip each apricot about halfway into the melted chocolate mixture a few times so that the coating is thick, then cover each side in hemp seeds and set each one into a cupcake liner.
Freeze for 4 hours and enjoy it.
