- Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper, or silicone baking mat. Set aside.

- Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to set.
- Remove from freezer, and break apart into pieces.

To prevent sugar crystals from forming, thoroughly stir chocolate after each interval to prevent the temperature from going too high.
For a fun marble effect, after spreading out the chocolate and quinoa mixture, drizzle milk or white chocolate on top. Using a toothpick, swirl in the milk chocolate, then continue with topping with the crystallized ginger.
