Directions:
Cover a large baking sheet/ pan with non stick baking paper. You may need two if your baking sheets/pan are small.

To melt chocolate - stove top method
Cut chocolate into similar size small pieces.

Place in a clean, dry glass or ceramic bowl - not plastic as it may retain moisture and a metal bowl can become very hot.
Place the bowl over a pot of barely simmering water - be sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.

Stir occasionally with a clean, dry metal spoon until melted - don't use a wooden spoon because it also may retain moisture.

Be sure not to let any water splash into the chocolate.

To melt chocolate - microwave method
Cut chocolate into similar size small pieces

Place in a microwave safe, clean, dry glass or ceramic bowl - not plastic as it may retain moisture

Microwave, uncovered on medium or 50% power, in 30 second intervals.

Stir with a clean, dry metal spoon in between each, until melted.


To make chocolate bark
Spread chocolate onto prepared baking sheet/pan thinly (about 1/4 inch). While the chocolate is still soft, scatter with various toppings.

Refrigerate until hard then break or cut into pieces. Will keep refrigerated for up to two weeks depending on toppings.
