Merry Christmas! We have reached Day 25 of the\u201c<\/strong>A Dessert a Day \u2018Til Christmas 2021\u2033<\/strong>\u00a0series. Since (almost) everything tastes better when dipped in chocolate I\u2019m resharing a DIY double boiler for chocolate post today.

I have used it to make chocolate-covered Candy Canes<\/a>, Dried Fruit (Mango)<\/a>, Potato Chips<\/a> and Pretzels<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since I have a pretty small NYC kitchen, I don\u2019t keep a whole lot of different pots and pans around. I try to stick with the basics\u2026things that I will frequently use. A double boiler pot doesn\u2019t fall into that category. Fortunately, I don\u2019t need one. You don\u2019t either. You can easily make your own. Here is how to make a DIY double boiler for chocolate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DIY Double Boiler for Chocolate <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Basically, you find one of your heatproof bowls that fit over one of your saucepans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Fill the saucepan with a few inches of water and heat it until the water is simmering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Put the chocolate in the heatproof bowl and place the bowl of chocolate on top of the saucepan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Frequently stir the chocolate in the bowl until it is smooth before removing it from the heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s it! Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
