[QUOTE="Listlad, post: 2018943, member: 499223"] Well...a Eureka moment led to a bright idea for mother’s day. Hot chocolate made with Willies 100% Cacao. But it failed. :D Firstly Mrs Listlad had to make it. She boiled some water and then put half the block into the boiling water. This produced a rich creamy chocolate mix. Then to avoid putting sugar in we added sweetner at the end with milk. It tasted very rich but there was an underlying bitterness that still lurked despite the sweetner. For me it was like having the keys to a Formula 1 car without having driven one before. :D Mrs Listlad said she thought it was quite different to the stuff she had consumed which says had a natural sweetness. So confusion reigned. Edit : To my untrained palate, we probably added two much Cacao to the mix, it was that strong. Also, as I have drunk most of it, I am hoping it doesn’t prove to be too much of a laxative. [USER=488381]@DianaMC[/USER] To be fair to Mrs Listlad, her recipe was very similar to this one: [URL]https://www.williescacao.com/recipes/hot-chocolate/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
