# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It takes less time than brewing a pot of coffee but tastes like you fussed for hours.
  • The salty crunch against silky chocolate is the kind of contrast that makes people reach for seconds before theyve finished their first piece.
  • You can make it with whatever chocolate you have on hand, and it still turns out impressive every single time.
02 -
  • Never let even a drop of water touch your melting chocolate or itll seize into a grainy clump that cant be saved.
  • If you use ridged or kettle-cooked chips, the texture gets even better, but theyll need a little more chocolate to cover all the curves.
03 -
  • Use a serrated knife to score the bark before it fully hardens if you want clean break lines instead of random shards.
  • If the chocolate starts to thicken while youre spreading it, pop it back over the heat for a few seconds to loosen it up again.
