Chocolate chunks

Simply begin at the corner of your bar, pressing the knife's teeth into it using both hands, one holding the handle and the other putting pressure onto the knife. Chopping chocolate into fragments is ideal if you need chocolate for melting, or if you want to include them in chocolate chip cookies.
