How to melt chocolate in the microwave

  • To melt the chocolate in the microwave, break into pieces and place it in a wide, shallow bowl.
  • Heat it on medium power for about 1 minute to start with. Remove from the microwave and stir. Repeat heating at 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and has a smooth consistency.

How to Melt chocolate on the stove

  • Heat a small pot with several inches of water to simmering.
  • Cover the top of the pot with a tightly fitting, heat-proof bowl making sure that the steam cannot escape. Check that the surface of the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl.
  • Add the chocolate to the bowl and allow the chocolate to melt in the bowl, stirring occasionally, until it is completely melted. Remove from the heat and stir to make sure it’s a smooth consistency. While still warm, add to your recipe.

Cream Cheese Chocolate Truffles

PRINT RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee
  • 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • 3 cups confectioners sugar
  • 10 ounces dark chocolate, melted
  • 10 ounces milk chocolate,  melted
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla.
  • If desired, you can roll truffles into confectioner’s sugar, cocoa powder, chopped nuts, coconut or sprinkles.
  • Melting chocolate disks if you would like to coat truffles

 

DIRECTIONS:

  • In a small bowl, stir the instant coffee into the heavy cream until dissolved.
  • In a large bowl beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in cream/coffee then confectioners sugar until well blended.
  • Stir in the melted dark and milk chocolate and vanilla until no streaks remain. Refrigerate mixture for one hour.
  • Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat, parchment paper or waxed paper.  Using a melon-baller or spoon, scoop chocolate and shape into 1-inch
    balls. Refrigerate for another hour.
  • If you would like to coat the truffles as I did, melt additional chocolate; coat each truffle with the melted chocolate and return to baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm.
  • Store between layers of waxed paper in covered container in refrigerator.
  • Makes 50-60 truffles
 

Chocolate Covered Oreo Cookies

 
While Keri was here this past weekend, we made Chocolate Covered Oreo Cookies to send to her cousins for Valentine’s Day.  I melted the candy disks in the microwave and Keri did the decorating.
A favorite with kids and adults alike. Everyone loves Oreo’s, especially when they have a coating of milk or dark chocolate. Candy molds make them easy to make and if you want to fancy them up, pipe in melted candy disks in pretty colors.
