The market has a lot of variety, and the quality of the products also varies significantly. Customers, unfortunately, are unable to distinguish between good and poor quality products. We are here to give customers the clarity they usually don’t get. Below is a list of factors that must be studied before customers invest in semi sweet chocolate chips. Do try chocolate chips. No Dairy ingredients If you’re dairy intolerant, you can still enjoy the creamy richness of ‘milk’ chocolate with our Free-from Batons for Milk Chocolate Lovers. With 45% cocoa solids, you get a real depth of flavour and, because we use rice flour to replace the milk, these batons create a luxuriously smooth finish. Produced in a dedicated allergen-free space, you can be sure there are no traces of dairy, gluten, nuts or wheat. These batons are vegan friendly, too! How to use semi-sweet chocolate Get the recipe from Julie's Eats and Treats. Chocolate Chip Rosemary Scones Courtesy of My Name is Yeh If you have a bag of chocolate chips on hand, you can go down two different routes. You can make them join a cast of other dessert-destined characters in your pantry and make an elaborate, weekend-project dessert. I know Amaury Guichon makes it look easy.But he uses special machines to melt chocolate for his tasty chocolate desserts!

White chocolate: 1/2 chocolate takes approximately 45 seconds to melt on high heat. Heat in 15-second intervals instead of 20. One of our favourite baking recipes is the Dizzy Praline Cake. To make it, you can use dark chocolate with a higher cocoa percentage or use semi-sweet chocolate if you find 70% a little too intense. This is a fancy French toast if we've ever seen one. First off, it's made with cinnamon toast bread instead of regular bread, which is layered in a baking dish, along with sliced bananas and chocolate chips. The whole thing gets topped off with oatmeal crumble. Yum! This carrot cake bread is a healthy riff on carrot cake. Ditch all that sugary frosting and add in some chocolate chips instead. Now, don’t be put off by the term ‘bitter’! Whilst chocolate with a high cocoa percentage isn’t as sweet as its lower-cocoa cousins, its nuanced flavours balance out that bitterness. Bitter chocolate can be a real delight for the taste buds.So, if you ask me how to melt white chocolate chips, I’ll always recommend the double boiler method. Get the recipe from Cookie and Kate. Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Swirled Cookie Bars Courtesy of Half Baked Harvest This is why you need a bowl that’ll cover the pot’s opening entirely for the double boiler method. That way, the steam can’t get in. Use a rubber or silicone spatula to stir the chocolate. It will help scrape the sides of your bowl much easier and encourage the chocolate to melt evenly.

Before our team even tasted these chips, many testers were oohing and aahing. Josh Rink in the Test Kitchen had this to say: “This chip is the prettiest to look at: nicely shaped, dark color and absolutely no flaws.” However, if you like the semi-sweet flavour of chocolate with a higher cocoa content but still want the decadently creamy texture milk chocolate brings, there might just be another type of bar that offers the best of both worlds.

Pot and Bowl– This makeshift double boiler calls for a tall pot and a wide, heatproof bowl. The bowl should sit on the rim of the pot and cover the entire opening.
