Simple and quick chocolate chips

Ingredients :

• 1 cup (200g) dark chocolate or milk chocolate, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or butter (optional, for easier melting)

Instructions : 

1. 1. Melt the Chocolate:Place the chopped chocolate and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 15-20 second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth. Alternatively, you can melt it using a double boiler on the stove.
2. 2. Prepare a Piping Bag:Transfer the melted chocolate to a piping bag or a small ziplock bag. Snip a tiny hole at the tip.

    

3. 3. Pipe the Chips: line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pipe small dots of chocolate onto the sheet to form chip shapes.
4. 4. Set the Chips:Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator or freezer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate chips harden.

    

5. 5. Store:Transfer the chocolate chips to an airtight container and store them in the fridge or a cool, dry place.

   Use them in cookies, muffins, or any recipe that calls for chocolate chips!
