Chocolate chips
Melt the chocolate in hot water, don't let the water temperature be too high, not more than 60 degrees, to prevent the chocolate from separating from the water and oil. The melted chocolate is poured into a square plate to cool, after cooling with a spatula or spoon back and forth scraping, you can scrape out beautiful chocolate chips. You can also add a small amount of water to adjust the softness of the chocolate.
Tips
1
After the chocolate and cream are melted, be sure to refrigerate overnight with plastic wrap on the sides, the reason for refrigerating on the sides is to prevent the cream from forming a crust on the surface, and the reason for refrigerating overnight is to allow the cream to cool down completely, and if you don't cool down in place before you whip the cream in a hurry, the cream can easily turn into a crumbly mess, which will separate the oil from the water.
2
After the chocolate chips have been scraped, don't touch them directly with your hands, as the hand temperature will melt them. The correct way is to use a soft scraper to shovel a portion of the chocolate shavings towards the cake to pile them up, and the excess will naturally fall down and just be followed by a plate. Repeat this until the entire cake is covered in chocolate chips.
