Put a small pot of water on the stovetop and bring to a low simmer.
Add your chocolate to a large metal or glass mixing bowl and place the bowl on top of the pot of simmering water. Make sure the bowl isn’t actually touching the water at all (if it is, remove some of the water until it doesn’t touch).
Stir occasionally as the chocolate melts and keep a close eye on the heat level to make sure that none of the chocolate starts to burn.
