Melting Chocolate

Midnight cravings for gooey chocolate will be my undoing, but try as I may, I invariably end up making a mess and wasting a bunch of chocolate. To the rescue is a fuss-free chocolate transformation from bar to melted indulgence. This shortcut does not compromise the rich, velvety result. Pssst, it won’t wake the household, so you won’t have to share!

Method

In a microwave-safe glass bowl, add the chocolate slab pieces.
With the power setting on high, run the microwave for 3 minutes. Stir after every 30 seconds to check. Once the timer is complete, the chocolate should be entirely molten.
