Go to epicurious.com. Enter "bittersweet" into the recipe search. 543
hits from Gourmet and Bon App. Bittersweet chocolate is similar in
composition to semi-sweet (just with less sugar), and can be used in
many recipes calling for semi-sweet. Knock yourself out! And put down
that bare chocolate. :-)
