  • 2- 170 g 12oz packages of 70% Dark Chocolate (Baker's is good)

Instructions
 

  • Have a parchment paper-covered (or Silpat covered) cookie sheet ready.

  • When fully melted, remove from heat and cool for 5-10 minutes.
  • Pour onto cookie sheet and spread it out until it is about 1/4 inch thick all over.
  • Top with your toppings (sprinkling all over).
  • Place the cookie sheet into fridge for 5 minutes until partially set.
