so melting the chocolate chips turned out bad, ended up like a big brownie in a pot. idk wtf i did wrong there, so i just froze them without the chocolate.

Did you stick them in a pan on the stove and walk away? or did you microwave them

qu1cks1lver56 · 06-22-2009, 07:12 PM

stuck them in a pot on the stove, and didnt exactly walk away but didnt stand over them the whole time.

The microwavable chocolate works well if you aren't familiar with a double boiler.

qu1cks1lver56 · 06-22-2009, 07:18 PM

idk wtf a double boiler is.
i thought you just throw them in a pot and turn on the burner.

Well thar you go. The best way to melt chocolate on the stove is to a pot and a glass/metal bowl that will rest on top of the pot. You add a little water to the pot and bring it to a simmer. then you place the chocolate in the glass bowl and place the bowl on top of the pot. The bowl should not be in the water. This will slowly melt the chocolate.

Kinda like this.

BIGN · 06-22-2009, 08:34 PM

Maybe.

FusionKid11 · 06-22-2009, 10:18 PM

soo
cook the chocolate in one pan then take a metal pan of some sorts and put it over the pan that has the chocolate?

pbsoccer11 · 06-22-2009, 10:34 PM

This is me, but with Oreoballs replacing the icecream.

Edit: I'm also not a fat ginger.

can anyone think of a possible subsitute for someone without chocolate chips.
such a ****ing sugar rush right now.

snoller · 06-23-2009, 10:19 PM

going to the grocery store and getting some

or look to see if you have cocoa powder

hcarter50 · 06-23-2009, 10:27 PM

nevermind.
found me 2 bags way in the back of the pantry.
i love my ****ing life.

i'm waiting till the morning.

i'll probably **** it up. haha.

edit: is 2 bags needed for the first batch or only after you threw in another 10 - 14 and the other half of the cream cheese?
like, will 1 bag work if i only do 10-14 oreos?

snoller · 06-24-2009, 11:14 AM
