Homemade chocolates ,ready in minutes and great as a gift.These were yummy,soft and chewy.I made a small batch ,Which yielded about 25 pieces - all by the way,vanished in thin air before the weekend...a note to myself next time,make an even smaller batch.
Update : We visited India this year and I made a big batch as gift for relatives ,everyone just loved it and kept asking me the recipe .Hope you all enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them .
ingredients:
1/4 cup: evaporated milk
1/4 cup:powder sugar
1/2 to 1 tbs butter(change to preference)
1/4 cup chocolate chip
1/4 cup almond powder
Recipe
- Microwave the milk and sugar for 2 minutes,no need to stir .
- add butter and chocolate chip microwave another 2 minutes stirring every 30 sec.
- add almond powder,if runny microwave 1 more minute and do the drop ball test as follows
- In a bowl full of water drop the chocolate paste and look what happens ,if the chocolate settles on the bottom ,you are able to pick it up and roll into a ball then its good, but if it dissolves right away then the paste needs some more microwaving
- once cool cover with plastic wrap and refrigerated for a minimum of 2 hours
- once cool shape into desired size,these can be made into truffles or can be molded into fancy shapes
- Enjoy with your loved ones.
