Chocolate


Homemade chocolate tastes great, especially if you have little one's. The cocoa you use depends on whether you like it sweet or bitter. For a sugary flavour, use Cadbury hot chocolate powder and for that tangy, dark chocolate taste, use Hersheys unsweetened cocoa. This is my cousin, Priya's recipe. She is a great cook and I am always inspired by her. You will need

Milk powder - 1 cup
Caster sugar - 1 cup
Melted butter - 1 cup
Cocoa - 5 Tbsp
Chocolate moulds

Sieve the milk powder, cocoa and sugar. Stir it around in the bowl so that they are nicely blended. You can melt the butter over a low flame or in the microwave. But if you are not in a hurry, its best to soften the butter by keeping it out of the fridge for a couple of hours before you start. Add the butter to the powder mix and stir around. It will become a soft dough. Spoon it into your moulds and smoothen. Leave the moulds at room temperature for 3 to 4 hours and then refrigerate overnight. Wrap in your child's favourite candy wrappers!
