Recipe Tips
- Snack Mindfully
Turn your attention to your dessert so you are eating in the moment and paying attention to portions. - How to Make Chocolate Curls
Warm chocolate slightly by heating it in the microwave for a few seconds until you can just smudge the chocolate with your thumb. Hold the chocolate steadily between your thumb and fingers of one hand and draw a vegetable peeler slowly over flat bottom of chocolate piece. Allow a thin layer of chocolate to curl as it is peeled off the bottom. This will make long delicate curls. To make short curls, use the same technique on the narrow sides of the chocolate piece. To arrange curls on a dessert, use a toothpick to lift them into place. - For Easy Cutting
For easy cutting, dip bottom of pie plate into warm water for 1 to 2 min. before cutting into pieces to serve.
