Notes
Melting Chocolate : My favorite way of melting chocolate on the stove is using a make-shift double-boiler. Simply fill up a small pot with about 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer. Place your chocolate chips in a small skillet on top of the simmering pot of water. The indirect heat from the water will melt the chocolate perfectly and you don't have to worry about the chocolate melting!
