Instructions
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Place chocolate in a microwave-safe glass measuring cup. Microwave for 60 seconds on 50%; stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds on 50%; stir until chocolate is completely melted. If needed, microwave for an additional 30 seconds on 50%. Do not overcook. Chocolate will melt as you stir it.

Let the chocolate set at room temperature, or put the bites in the refrigerator to speed things up.
