What doubles as a double boiler?

If you want to make homemade truffles or other chocolate candy but don't have a double boiler, suspend a heat-proof bowl over a pot of simmering water. The pot should not touch the water, and the water should not be boiling. Stir the chocolate often until it is almost completely melted, then remove the bowl and continue stirring until it is smooth.

Sounds like a good idea, and better than paying a lot of money for a double boiler that would be rarely used.
Thanks
