Chocolate Letter Writing

This is a great little trick for making tidy lettering for your next “special occasion” dessert!

First, melt some semisweet chocolate by whatever method you prefer – I like the microwave.  Pour the chocolate into a ziploc bag.

Second, print out your desired words in a font of your choice and cover the paper with wax paper, secured with tape.

Cut off a tiny corner from the bag, and begin piping the chocolate onto the wax paper, following the letters on the paper as a guide.  You can practice away from your guide letters first (note: extra exclamation points anyone?)

Allow your chocolate to cool completely, and peel your chocolate letters away from the wax paper, quickly placing them on top of your cake/cupcakes/creation.  (quickly because your hands will warm the chocolate.)

You’ve done it!  Beautiful, easy, delicious chocolate letters!
