I always chop chocolate for truffles in my food processor, and have never
melted it. Of course, I don't set it going and walk away for a few minutes,
either--I stand there and watch it. And I'm usually starting with discos. If
you are starting from a bar, you have to do a fair amount of manual chopping
first anyway.
