I have also tried their 72% Chocodrops and they are fabulous, but would prefer a lower cacao percentage for ganache, so I must try this.
I have used the 72% in cookies but they don’t melt the same way. (The flavor is great for eating out of hand, or for dipping.)
R, i would suspect the best choco chips for cookies are milk chocolate or something around 50%. if you do a lot of chocolate chip cookies or cakes with chocolate chips, try the valrhona les perles, dark 50% or so. you can buy it in huge bags and it does come better priced than any other valrhona dark chocolate. been perles, it is so easy to temper.
