Thanks Chris. I wondered about the chocolate chips because that’s all I have on hand i.e., High quality chocolate for making Bonbons. But since my daughter was out shopping I got her to grab me some baking chunks of dark chocolate. Can’t hurt I don’t suppose
OK I have some Dutch processed and some dark doesn’t seem that it matters a whole lot. Probably missed reading about it somewhere.
Yes. My suspicion was that you were working everything by hand. I think I will have to stick to the machine for physical reasons. Besides doesn’t cause me any grief anyway.
Hoping some of my questions will help others when they get to baking with their books. 
Where are they all anyway?
