Homemade Chocolate in No Time
Making chocolate at home is no great science. If you are after a healthier treat or an original gift of homemade chocolates, this is just the thing. All you need is a few basic ingredients.
The basic homemade chocolate recipe
Ingredients
- cocoa powder
- coconut oil
- honey
Method
- Melt the coconut oil in a suitable bowl.
- Stir in cocoa until you have a thick mixture and sweeten with honey to taste.
- Pour the chocolate into moulds and put it in the fridge.
- Leave it for about 24 hours so the ingredients bind properly. The chocolates will then not melt straight away, but still keep them somewhere cool.
How to make it your own
You can add other ingredients to the base and create endless variations. Nuts of all kinds and dried fruit work beautifully, as do chopped leftover biscuits, candy-coated chocolates or fruit jellies.
