Chop 75% of your chocolate and melt it at HALF power in your microwave (white chocolate burns easily, so stop and check every 10 seconds and stir it well). Take it out before it is completely melted and stir stir stir. Now grate (yes, with a cheese grater) the rest of your chocolate into the bowl and stir stir stir. You want the temperature of the chocolate to drop to about 85F (29C)--this is for white chocolate, dark is different. If you have added the rest and it still is too hot, just keep stirring until it feels slightly cooler than body temp. Then you should be ready to make your little ghosties. If your tempering worked they should set up to be nice and shiny! If not, eat em anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25185166.post-40790997824228039142007-10-28T19:09:00.000+00:002007-10-28T19:09:00.000+00:00great ghosts!great ghosts!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10261765799991854011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25185166.post-7538947788248306292007-10-28T19:06:00.000+00:002007-10-28T19:06:00.000+00:00I have seen both movies.... poor you!
