To make chocolate curls for garnishing desserts, pull a swivel-bladed vegetable peeler or thin, sharp knife across a block of milk chocolate, using long, thin strokes. The curls will be easier to make if the chocolate is slightly warm, so you can let it stand in a warm place for about 15 minutes before cutting if you like.
Semisweet chocolate will make smaller curls. Use a toothpick to lift the curls from the chocolate and to place them on a frosted cake, pie or dessert. Make chocolate shavings the same way by using shorter strokes.
