Sweet Treats for Sharing and Baking

Hershey's bars melt smoothly for s'mores and frosting. Ghirardelli dark squares make an easy after-dinner treat. Reese's cups and Oreos are crowd-pleasers for parties.

Baking shortcuts

Crush Oreos for pie crusts or ice cream toppings. Chop chocolate bars into cookies or brownies for pockets of melted chocolate.

Storage

Keep chocolate cool and dry. Avoid warm cabinets that can cause bloom—harmless white streaks that still taste fine.
