Notes

  • If you don't want to use a microwave, you can melt chocolate chips with using a double boiler.
  • Don't overcook the chocolate. Be careful not to burn the chocolate when microwaving.
  • You can make as many or few as you want. Just adjust the amount of chocolate chips you melt.
  • You can dip part of the chip into the chocolate if you prefer a little bit of the potato chip exposed.
