Try again with new chocolate but decrease cooking time

Oh man, the number of times I’ve done this!

Well, in future i would suggest cooking it in short bursts (like 30 seconds) and stirring and then repeating til its melted.

But if it does go hard and messy, you can just add a little bit of cream and stir it in. (not too much though!) this usually helps.

Once its gone all hard and messy, you’ll never get it back to normal but i do find that the cream does help to at least make it kind of melty again.

If you don’t have cream just use melted butter or marg. (but be aware that this can make it go quite oily).

You can make chocolate sauce out of it: Put it in a saucepan, add a couple spoons water or milk. Cook on low heat and whisk well and it should become smooth and silky, it won’t harden like the original chocolate but it is a usable sauce. Hope this can help 🙂

It’s burned.  It can never be good chocolate again.  Even if you eat it as is, it will taste burned and the texture will feel funny in your mouth.
