Microwave 6 oz. dark chocolate, chopped, or semisweet chocolate chips, and 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a deep measuring jug in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. (Alternatively, melt chocolate and oil in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water—do not let water touch bowl—and pour chocolate mixture into a tall, narrow heatproof glass.)
