white chocolate recipe | milk chocolate recipe | homemade chocolate bars with detailed photo and video recipe. an easy and simple confectionery condiment recipe made with cocoa powder, milk powder and powdered sugar. traditional chocolate bars are made with the mixture of cocoa powder with cacua or cocoa butter, but in this recipe, virgin coconut oil is used. it is one of the ideal chocolate snacks and can be easily shared with friends and family for various occasions.
as i was explaining earlier, the chocolate bars are prepared with cocoa butter which gives it a silky smooth texture. however, it is not easily available and the normal butter does not work as an alternative to it. some claim that even milk butter can be used, but trust me i have tried it and failed miserably. hence i am not at all recommending it. but you can use other lubricating agent and coconut oil is one such easy option. i have used virgin coconut oil, and hence you may not get the same string coconut oil smell. further, you can also use vanaspati or dalda for the same purpose, but may not be considered as healthy as coconut oil. these are all alternatives, but the first option is to use cocoa butter if you have access to it. it is generally available in medical store, but you may get it in selected general stores too.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variations to the white chocolate and milk chocolate recipe. firstly, in this recipe, i have used a silicone-based chocolate bar mould. i got this one from ebay and i could not find easily in most of the stores. if you do not get it, you may use any silicone shaper to shape these chocolates. secondly, once the chocolate or milk powder-based sauce is prepared, do not chill it immediately by refrigerating it. bring it to room temperature and then chill it to set it. lastly, you may also prepare the dark chocolate bar by skipping the milk powder added to it. in addition, you can also add roughly chopped peanuts, almonds or raisin to prepare nu chocolate bar recipe.
