Step:

  1. First melt the cocoa butter either in a bain marie or in the microwave. If microwaving stir every 30 seconds until melted, it should only take a few minutes. Don't boil the butter

  4. To make prettier chocolates that won't melt so easily at room temperature, you need to temper the mixture. Please refer to my tempering link below

  5. If you're not so worried about that, pour the mixture into a jug so you have better control of the flow

  6. Now pour into moulds. I kept the plastic that were inside the kids christmas advent calendars. They are a perfect thickness, not too deep. I keep a lot of these type of things!

  9. This recipe makes a darker chocolate. To make a milk chocolate, swap out some of the cocoa powder for powdered milk. For a dairy & soy-free version use powdered rice milk or coconut milk. You can buy both on the Amazon website
