I've made these before but have occasionally had a problem with my chocolate turning white the next day. What am I doing wrong? Please Help!
It sounds as if you are getting your chocolate too hot. Your chocolate has bloomed causing those white or grayish streaks. Use the double boiler method as Mary Jane suggests. Place chopped chocolate in a stainless steel or glass bowl. Place 1-2" of water in a sauce pot. Let it come to a boil. Turn off heat. Place bowl with chocolate on sauce pot and allow to melt. Stir a couple of times until is fully melted. Some people will keep the heat on low, but it is really not necessary. It melts quite nicely on its own from the steam coming up from the water bath. Good luck! Elisabeth
