Chocolate Hearts
Ingredients:
- 1 cup chocolate chips (the darker, the better in my opinion)
- Wax or parchment paper
Instructions:
- Place chocolate chips in a small bowl.
- Microwave at medium (50%) for 1 minute; stir. Chips should be fully melted and smooth.
- If the chips are not melted, continue microwaving at 50%, 15 seconds at a time, stir after each heating, until fully melted.
- Place melted chocolate in a small (food-safe) squeeze bottle or sandwich bag (snip off a very small corner).
- Place a piece of parchment on a cookie sheet or cutting board. You are now ready to draw hearts, letters, etc… on the paper with the chocolate.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes, until solid.
