Melting Chocolate
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Melting chocolate sounds easy, but if not done right it can be an absolute disaster. Cook it too long and lumps form. A bit of water falling into the mix will also make the possibility of smooth melted chocolate impossible!
* Step 2
I add vegetable oil to the cooking chocolate which ensures a smooth consistency - in other words NO LUMPS
* Step 3
Before putting the chocolate into the double boiler, pour in +/- 1/4 cup vegetable oil. (There is no actual measurement as it depends on how much chocolate you are melting)
* Step 4
Place chocolate into double boiler
* Step 5
Stir until chocolate has melted totally
* Step 6
If any lumps start to form, just add a little more oil.
* Step 7
This method makes the melted chocolate smooth and easy to work with for pouring/ dipping/ anything that requires melted chocolate
* Step 8
This method also makes the chocolate set quicker and harder
