Homemade Nutella Chips

Directions

1. 1
   In a double boiler or a glass bowl set over a pot of simmering hot water, melt all the ingredients until you have a smooth, glossy chocolate mixture, about 3 to 5 minutes.
2. 2
   Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
3. 3
   Take the mixture off heat.
4. 4
   To make chunks, spread in a 1/8-inch thick layer on Silpat or foil and freeze for at least 2 hours.
5. 5
   When frozen solid, break into chunks with a knife (try not to handle the chocolate too much or the heat of your hands will start to melt it).
6. 6
   Store in the freezer until ready to use.
7. 7
   To make chocolate chips or discs, put the melted chocolate inside a pastry bag or resealable bag with a corner snipped off.
8. 8
   Pipe out the discs or chips onto a baking sheet lined with Silpat or a sheet of foil.
9. 9
   When done, put the sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours.
10. 10
    When frozen solid, loosen the chocolate chips and store in a bag or airtight container in the freezer until ready to use.
