*A double boiler is the safest method for melting chocolate because it prevents scorching. Place the chocolate in the top of the double boiler in a heatproof bowl over hot, not boiling water,and stir until smooth. To use the direct heat method, place the chocolate in a heavy saucepan and melt over very low heat, stirring constantly. To melt chocolate in the microwave, place a 1-ounce square or 1 cup (6 oz) of chips in a small microwavable bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1- 1 1/2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute. Stir the chocolate at 30 second intervals until smooth. Be sure to stir microwaved chocolate since it may retain its original shape even after melting.
