Kitchen Tip:

Special Extra Garnish with chocolate curls. To make the curls, place 1 wrapped square of BAKER'S Baking Chocolate in microwave. Microwave on DEFROST 1 minute to warm slightly. Or, let the wrapped chocolate stand for several hours in a warm place, such as on top of a refrigerator or under a strong light. Carefully pull a vegetable peeler over the smooth surfaces of the chocolate square. Scrape along the bottom for long curls or the sides for short curls. Use a toothpick to lift the curls without breaking them. Store in covered container in refrigerator or freezer until ready to use.
