Melting Chocolate Tips

Melting chocolate can be a little tricky so it's important to use higher quality chocolate.

I bought white chocolate wafers for this recipe, but you could also use a white chocolate baking bar or almond bar that was made for baking and melting.

If you do not want to use a microwave you can melt this in a small saucepan on the stovetop.
