Chocolate Curls

Idea gallery #1007
  • candy coating
  • cookie sheet
  • metal scraper
  • parchment paper
Using a large spatula, cover a baking pan that has an even surface, with melted candy coating. Spread as thin as possible, making sure the baking sheet does not show through. Allow to “just-set”. Brace the baking pan against the body. Starting in the left hand corner with the scraper away from you and at about a 20° angle, scrape the chocolate to form a curl. While scraping the chocolate, keep the blade parallel to the bottom edge of the pan, but move the scraper at an angle.
