You can break off pieces to enjoy as a satisfying snack. For baking, it can be chopped and added to cookies, brownies, or muffins, melting into the batter to provide pockets of rich chocolate. It can also be melted down to create a smooth ganache for cakes or used as a drizzle over ice cream and other desserts. Stirring small pieces into hot milk can create a decadent hot chocolate experience, with the salt bringing out the depth of the cocoa.
