Instructions

Line a 15 x 10-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Arrange chocolate bars in a single layer on prepared pan. Broil 3-4 inches from the heat for 25-30 seconds or until chocolate tops begin to melt. Sprinkle each with American Grana® and toppings as desired.

Cheesemonger Tip

American Grana® is a premium parmesan cheese aged at least 18 months on wooden shelves in special caves. During this process, the cheese wheels are turned by hand to develop its deep nutty flavor and granular texture.
