Chocolate on a spoon


Have a lot of leftover chocolates from various parties, places and return gifts sitting in your fridge?

Melt it all together in a double boiler. You can add anything u like to the liquid chocolate- dry fruit, canned fruit, rice crispies or flavorings like hazelnut extract etc. Now take small plastic paper cups (cutting chai cups are the best for these). Pour the cooled down chocolate into them. let it set a bit outside before refrigerating. Once the chocolate reaches semi solid condition, take a wooden ice lolly stick or a wooden disposable spoon and insert in the centre of the chocolate cup.
note: The chocolate consistency at this time should be such that the stick or the spoon stays straight and doesn't wobble down or slide out.
Chocolate on a spoon for any time hot chocolate!!!
Now you can happily let this refrigerate till totally set or the chocolate takes the shape of the cup. Once set, you can take the chocolate out of the plastic cup mold and wrap it in plastic with a tiny ribbon. you can use these chocolate on spoons to make instant hot chocolate. Just add 200 ml hot milk to your favourite mug or cup and dunk this spoon in it. Wait for it to melt slowly as you sip on the heavenly drink on a cold winter night.
hot tip: you can always pack some mini marshmellows, a stick of cinnamon or peanut butter on top of the set chocolate on a spoon. it would add the extra touvh to your cuppa hoooooottt chocolate.

Enjoy it!

love, Anu
