Here is some advice by our contributors (if you're going to add a new suggestion, put it at the bottom of the list!). * Go outside when it's hot or keep it in the Sun (or in any warm place). * Use your breath, hold it in your hands. * Put it in a bowl that fits over a pot of hot water. (Be careful!) * Use a stove top. * Use a chocolate fountain, or other chocolate melting device.

∙ 13y agoChocolate melts easily in a microwave. A high setting melts the chocolate quickly, but also risks scorching the chocolate if not watched carefully. A medium setting is also fairly quick with less risk.
If using chips, place them in a microwave safe container - a glass measuring cup works well - and heat on medium until the chips become shiny; about 60 to 90 seconds for half a cup, then stir. It is not possible to give an exact time because different microwave ovens have different powers. It also will take somewhat longer to melt larger quantities.
When melting solid chocolate, break it or cut it up into 1/2" pieces, then microwave at medium power until shiny, 1 to 4 minutes depending on the amount. Baking squares can be melted in their individual paper wraps - loosen the paper before heating.
Chocolate Chips and some other chocolates will melt in the microwave without losing their shape. So it is necessary to stop the microwave after one minute and stir the chocolate to avoid scorching.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on the type and size of the chocolate. Heating it at 30 second intervals, and stirring in-between intervals, should melt the chocolate in about 2 minutes or so (4 intervals).

What ensures equal heating in microwave oven?
The RF in the microwave oven cavity is a standing wave pattern. A motionless slab of chocolate or ice e.g. will melt at points that are 6.1 centimeters apart. Uniform heating can only be ensured on the average, by the use of the 'turntable' that constantly rotates the meatloaf within the field.

You will almost never make chocolate from the cacao bean - that is a commercial process. What you should use when making something that contains depends on what kind of chocolate you are starting with. If you are going to bake a chocolate cookie, and oven is best, but some kinds can be make in a microwave. If you are melting chocolate to use in an icing, or as a topping on ice cream, doing so with water in a double boiler is probably best, but again, some forms of chocolate can be softened or liquefied in a microwave.
Can you melt a eraser in a microwave?
According to my experiment to try to melt a eraser in a microwave oven, it failed. I put the eraser on a paper plate into the microwave and set it for five minutes. Unfortunately it failed by only getting warm. It may be a good idea to try it for longer, but it will most likely not melt because there is no radioactivity. With that the microwave allows the eraser bits to melt. But without it, heating an eraser is no good.
