Ingredients
- 1 cup (8 oz.) dark chocolate, chopped and divided

Directions
- Prep the toppings of your choice before melting the chocolate and set them aside.

- When it starts simmering, add 6 ounces of chopped chocolate, reduce the heat to medium-low and stir often until melted.
- Add the remaining 2 ounces of chocolate and stir until melted and smooth.
- On a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper, spoon on melted chocolate and spread it out evenly with the back of the spoon to form rounds, about 1 ½ to 2-inches in diameter.
- Working quickly before the chocolate cools off, add the toppings of your choice and press them down gently to adhere to the surface.
