|
I want to make a chocolate sauce for my dessert tonight. I want my family to be impressed. I need to make a chocolate sauce without chocolate squares and any special creams. Here are my ingredients that I have.
Cocoa Powder
Milk
Sugar
And any other BASIC things
Like I said I don't have any heavy cream or half and half. It needs to have cocoa powder not chocolate cubes because i don't have any chocolate cubes.

Cocoa Chocolate Sauce
Ingredients
1½ cups of milk
1 oz (30 g) of butter
4 tbsp of sugar
4 tbsp of Cadbury’s cocoa powder
1½ tbsp of cornflour
½ tsp of vanilla essence
Method
Blend together the milk, sugar, cocoa powder and cornflour with a whisk until a smooth paste has formed.
Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and heat over a medium heat until the mixture begins to boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
Remove the pan from the stove and add the butter. Stir the butter until it melts and blends into the sauce mixture.
Finally, add the vanilla essence and stir well.
Serve the sauce warm with your favourite pudding.
well then go with another sause maybe a berry one.
If you really want to impress your family with a chocolate fondue sauce, buy a bag of Nestle’s semi-sweet chocolate chips, use 1/2 cup of canola oil, put it in the microwave for 2 minutes, add in 1/4 cup of a fruit liquor (I use Grand Marnier), then put back in microwave for 1 minute. It tastes awesome.
mix equal parts of coco powder and powdersugar,
add sweetened condensed milk or regular milk if you dont have any, stir in a little at a time until you get the thickness you disire.
I know a grrrrrreat recipe for you ;) It’s passed down so it’s GOOD if you get it right.
I’ve used it many times before and it’s delicious :D
Ok, here it goes:
- 2 cups of sugar
- 1 3/4 cups of flour
- 3/4 cups cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda
- 1 pinch of salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of milk
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla
- 1 cup of boling water
- 1/2 cup of butter (you can add 1/2 a stick of butter or you
can use 1/2 a cup of vegetable oil)
[Personally, I use, white butter... I'm from a spanish speaking country and here, we call it mantequilla. It's white by the way!
It tastes so much better with it! But if you only have oil, don't sweat it ok?]
Take a little oil and oil the pan where you will be baking, and sprinkle some flour on it, enough, so your cake won’t stick.
In a bowl, mix all-dry ingredients.
Then add the eggs, milk, oil (or butter), and vanilla. Stir it at medium speed.
When it is well blended, add the boiling water. Stir again.
(If your mix seems a little bit liquid, do not worry. Try a little
bit, if it tastes ok, trust yourself my baker!
Now, pour the mix into the pan where you’ll be baking the cake. BE SURE TO HAVE OILED IT ENOUGH!
Bake for about 30 – 45 mins., depending on your pan. This mix makes a medium cake.
When it is out of the oven, make some chocolate by mixing cocoa, sugar, a little bit of flour, and just enough boiling water.
I hope you like the recipe ;) I you want another, just ask.
I’m a pro baker! This recipe is simple and nice to make :D
