Recipe Tips

How to Easily Drizzle Melted ChocolateUse a teaspoon to drizzle chocolate back and forth over dessert in desired design. Or, spoon melted chocolate into small resealable plastic bag; press out excess air and seal bag. Cut small piece (about 1/8 inch) off one bottom corner of bag. Use to drizzle chocolate over dessert.

VariationDecrease sugar to 1 cup, peanut butter to 2 Tbsp. and omit 1 tsp. butter.  Microwave peanut butter in small microwaveable bowl on HIGH 10 to 15 sec. or until completely melted when stirred.  Drizzle over cheesecake in spiral fashion.  Continue as directed.
