Food Chronicles: Home-made chocolate bars



The search for good confectionary continues. I wanted a mix of everything, dark, milk and white chocolate. But nothing was fulfilling my chocolate needs. So, I decided that if you want something, you have to do it yourself.

Here are my homemade chocolate bars. As easy as pie!

Ingredients:

400 grams of dark chocolate
400 grams of milk chocolate
100 grams white chocolate
Rich tea biscuits (or equivalent)

What you will need:
baking dish
double boiler (pan that can fit in another pan)

Step one. Place water into bottom pan and put on the stove on a medium heat.
Step two. Place dark chocolate in top pan and place top pan over bottom pan in water.
Step three. The chocolate should slowly melt, once fully melted pour into baking dish.
Step four. Crumble biscuits and place over dark chocolate.
Step five. Melt the milk chocolate in the same way, and place on top of biscuit layer.
Step six. Cling film the chocolate dish and leave in fridge for two hours at least.
Step seven. (after the two hours) Melt the white chocolate in the same way.
Step eight. Take a small amount of melted white chocolate on a spoon and shake accross top of milk chocolate layer, as decoration.
Step nine. Leave for another hour in fridge Step ten. cut into bars and EAT

  1. Fats and sugars are the main culprits for giving chocolate a bad reputation. Good quality chocolate uses only cocoa butter, and with quality dark chocolate, there is a lower level of sugar too.
