How can it be so hard to melt chocolate??

Electric frying pan sounds like a good idea. We did have one, but chucked it when we moved because it was cheap and all the non-stick stuff had come off so it burnt everything. Bugger! Definitely going to have another go at this now today, I'm determined to make it work lol.

I use my microwave to melt chocolate. Just do it in 20-30 second bursts (and stir).

It can retain its form but still be melted, so check regularly. It should only take a minute or so depending on how much choc you have.

Good luck!!!!
