So you tried to melt some chocolate and it seized on you. Did you follow my instructions (see “how to melt chocolate“)? Well don’t worry, the problem can be solved. Here is what you need to do.
For every ounce of chocolate, add one tablespoon of one of the following:
milk
cream
vegetable oil
Stir the mixture until smooth. If necessary, VERY SLOWLY add more of the milk, cream or oil.
Three things to remember. First, this should be done while the chocolate is still warm. Second, the added ingredient (milk, cream or oil) needs to be the same temperature as the chocolate. Third, the rescued chocolate will only be usable in baking, sauces or ice creams.
