Chocolate Dipped Kettle Chips Rachael Ray Recipes

Steps:

• Line 2 cookie sheets with wax paper.
• In a small bowl, break up chocolate, microwave chocolate and oil on high power,stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
• Set a rack over the cookie sheets lined with wax paper.
• Working with one chip at a time, dip the chips into the hot chocolate and set on the rack.
• Sprinkle chopped pistachios over one-third of chips.
• Sprinkle coarse salt over one third.
• Sprinkle cayenne pepper over one third.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave. Dip each chip two-thirds of the way into the melted chocolate, then set on waxed paper and sprinkle with a tiny bit of sea salt Allow to sit at room temperature until the chocolate is totally set, about 2 hours, or in the fridge for 15 minutes if you need to hasten it along.

Steps:

• Place the chocolate chips in a medium heat-safe bowl. Place the bowl over a saucepan with 1 inch of water in the bottom and heat over medium heat. Stir constantly with a rubber spatula until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Stir in the oil and remove from the heat.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Dip each chip halfway into the chocolate coating, allowing the excess to drip off back into the bowl. Place the coated chip on the parchment-lined tray and continue with the remaining chips. Garnish with the sprinkles or salt of your choice. Refrigerate the chips until the chocolate is set, about 15 minutes. Serve, or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days before serving.

Steps:

• Heat milk in a small pan over moderate heat until it comes to a boil.
• In blender or food processor combine egg, sugar, a pinch of salt, semisweet chips, and liqueur. Run processor or turn on blender to low setting. Pour in boiling milk in a slow stream. The hot milk will cook egg and melt chocolate. Process or blend 1 minute, until smooth.
• Spoon chocolate into 4 demitasse cups and chill. After dinner, beat cream until soft peaks form. Add a little sugar and beat to combine. Top the chocolate cups with a dollop of cream and garnish each cup with mint sprigs.
• Place cups on saucers and serve with demitasse spoons. If you use teacups, this recipe will yield 2 cups, rather than 4.

Steps:

• In a large pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the popcorn.
• When the oil sizzles, sprinkle the sugar over the kernels.
• Cover and shake the pan until the popping slows down, about 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and toss with the salt.
