Ingredients
- 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate bar Dark, Milk, White
Instructions
Microwave
- Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave at 30 second intervals.
- Stir chocolate in between each 30 seconds so all of the chips are just about melted.
- Continue to stir until the last remaining pieces have melted.
Stovetop
- Place a pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil, reduce to a low simmer.
- Place chocolate in a metal bowl that will fit over the top of the pot of water snugly.
- Place the bowl with chocolate on top of the simmering water, stirring very often until melted.

Notes
- Storage: Melted chocolate is best used straight away, otherwise it will no longer be the right temper. If you have leftover melted chocolate, simply pour onto parchment and allow to cool then scrape up and place in a ziplock bag. Store in the fridge for 3 months.
