  • Don't over heat the chocolate.
  • Pour chocolate on to your prepared pan and spread to your desired thickness.
  • Top with the toppings of your choice.
  • Don't be a sissy! Try the crickets!
  • Using the back of a spoon, tap down the toppings so they will stick in the chocolate better.
  • Place the pan in the fridge to set, approximately 2 hours.
  • Break apart and enjoy!
