White Chocolate Cutouts
- 2 1/4 pounds best-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
- Liquid or gel-paste food coloring
- Line three rimmed baking sheets with parchment; set aside.
- In a heatproof bowl set over (but not touching) simmering water, melt white chocolate, stirring constantly.
- Divide melted chocolate evenly among three small bowls; tint each with food coloring to desired shade.
- Pour a colored chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it with an offset spatula into a layer about 1/8 inch thick.
- Transfer to the refrigerator; chill until chocolate is firm, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Repeat with the remaining colored chocolates.
- Working with one color at a time, cut out shapes; leave shapes in place on the sheet.
- (If chocolate is still soft in any area, return to the refrigerator to harden, 1 to 2 minutes.)
- Refrigerate until completely firm.
- Separate the shapes from borders with a small offset spatula.
- (Scraps can be discarded, or remelted and used again.)
- Cutouts can be refrigerated, between sheets of parchment paper, in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
