How to Make Chocolate Dirt

Place 1 cup of dark chocolate chips into a food processor or clean coffee grinder.
Pulse until the chocolate reaches a coarse, sandy texture. Do not over-process or you'll end up with chocolate paste!
Sift the chocolate dirt through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any large chunks (optional, for a finer texture).
Sprinkle generously over your favorite desserts – cupcakes, ice cream, whipped cream, or even fruit tarts!
