- Cocoa butter- 190grams
- Powdered jaggery- 310grams
Total batch size- 1000grams
69%😜 dark chocolate recipe, added some dry fruits to taste.
I forgot the date for this, but it was a disaster-
Read it carefully so as to not repeat my mistake. This is the recipe I tried-
Cocoa powder- 1KG
Powdered jaggery- 1KG
Unsalted butter- 1.5KG
I melted the butter and mixed in cocoa powder little by little after it was mixed in properly I proceeded to add the molten (not melted :)) powdered jaggery as I had to heat it on low temperature for a long period of time and keep mixing it. I added the some nuts in the tray and topped it up with the disgusting mix ;). I refrigerated, I don’t have the monies to throw it out so I am eating a pcs or two everyday and distributing it to people I meet, so as to finish it off and experiment a new recipe. If someone screw you in the past and you want to take a revenge share this recipe.
