I made a chocolate cookie thing and in the recepie it says to use a "heated knife" to cut the chocolate once it's cooled. I tried to boil water and stick the knife in that, but the chocolate cracked and splintered as I was cutting it. Any other suggestions?

The chocolate has cake layers between it, so I need to figure out hos to cut through the chocolate coating I put around them.

Make sure you hold the knife in the hot water long enough for the blade to heat. Don't press down on the chocolate let the blade melt the chocolate as it goes through. Pull your knife up, wipe it off, reheat with water and keep going.

I use a sharp chef's knife to chop chocolate; I never have any problems with it. Make sure you use a knife that is sharp and that it has a blade large enough to go through thick chocolate.

Maybe you could just break it up in chunks. Sounds pretty brittle.
