  6. I hate how the chocolate chips included in my brownie mix always gets burnt during the baking process, so if I add any next time I will add them in the last ten minutes or so. Or maybe even after baking.

  8. It seems as though it’s impossible to “fix” chocolate that has seized, but instead of adding hot water to make the chocolate “loose” and workable, why not add hot double cream to make a creamy chocolate ganache instead of watery chocolate.

  20. Chef, please help me, I have a problem and idk how to solve it. I made a chocolate, mid-cooking I ran out of coconut oil(the cooking one), so I look around my house for another coconut oil and I ended up using frying version pf coconut oil(the type to deep fry food), my sister told me it's not the same and now my chocolate it ruined and oily because of it 🙁
    Is there a way to make my chocolate less oily, it's oily to the touch and oily on my lips when I ate them too, it also melt very easily. So it's not just a matter of using a wrong version of coconut oil but I also used too much of it D:

  32. THANK YOU!!!!
    THANK YOU!!!!!
    THANK YOU!!!!

    So here's why I'm here:
    My dumbass added a tea spoon of milk after my chocolate had melted… So I freaked out when it turned to what I called "Hot chocolate ice cream" and put it back on double boiler, WAITED 30 FRICKIN MINUTES AND NOTHING HAPPENED!!!!!!
    Then I looked it up on YouTube… And I had to add 8 tea spoons of hot water, trust me,
    1) it works
    2)your chocolate will look so good
    So yeah, if anyone else did what I did… WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?! But yeah, if you only added one tea spoon of milk, you have to add 8 tea spoon of hot water… 🙂

  41. I added water to my siezed chocolate and now it is in somewhat liquid state. I want to apply it to a paper cup but the chocolate doesn hold, but the whole amount stick together like a lump. Does anybody have any idea how to fix this?
