Notes
Melting Chocolate in Microwave
Place Chocolate in Microwave Safe Bowl and microwave for 30 seconds and then stir. Repeat for an additional 30 seconds and then stir. If needed heat in 10 second intervals and stir until smooth. Do not over heat.
Melting Chocolate in Instant Pot
My preferred method of melting chocolate is using an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker as a Double Boiler. To do this add 2 cups of water to the bottom of the Instant Pot and place a large glass bowl on top.Set Instant Pot to Saute and allow the water to heat up creating steam. The steam will heat the glass bowl sitting on top. Add chocolate chips, wafers, almond bark or your preferred ingredient and allow the warm bowl to gently melt the chocolate.Stir. It’s important to not let the chocolate get too hot. As you stir you will notice the chocolate will melt and there will still be whole pieces. Gradually with stirring all chocolate will melt and you can turn the Instant Pot off.
