Organic Milk Chocolate Blocks at Home: Tips on What to Buy and Use

Organic Milk Chocolate Blocks at Home: Tips on What to Buy and Use


People often times underestimate the simplicity of making chocolate and chocolate treats. In fact it can be ridiculously easy and inexpensive.

Often times with out busy life styles we feel that we do not have much time for anything. So we by microwave dinners, visit drive thrus, and buy prepackaged Foods.

Also, the horrors of buying processed individually rapped cakes!

There is nothing like homemade delicious Foods. It is the best hands down!

However, the key is not succumbing to the microwave society. We have to find quick solutions that have REAL ingredients.

I am surprised at all of the membership sites that are available to help with delicious recipes and dinner ideas.

For instance, I just found out that you can make homemade milk chocolate with only 5 ingredients!

Just think of all of the money that can be saved when making chocolate-based desserts!

Not to Mention eliminating all of the processed fake crap that is in the traditionally bought prepackaged stuff.

The 5 Ingredients are

Powdered Cocoa
Salt
Shortening
Powdered Milk
Confectioner's Sugar

Powdered Cocoa

Buy the good stuff! Do not skip this step! Depending on what you are going for you can use organic cocoa powder or dark chocolate this will be up to you. There are a lot of great brands out there: Hershey, Ghirardelli, Navitas Naturals. This step is critical because you want to have a quality treat when you are finished. Choose a quality Cocoa!

Salt

Only a pinch is needed

Shortening

This is what will hold the recipe altogether. There is a shortening that is organic by Spectrums. The consistency is fluffy and smooth.
It's great for confectioneries! Loved the results when I used it.
This is a stupendous alternative to other shortenings.

Powdered Milk

Where the milk in milk chocolate comes from. You can go organic. Which many of us are seeing the benefits of it. I found that the product Organic Valley Organic Nonfat Dry Milk Powder is definitely superior to other store brought powdered milks! The best part is that it does not have that "processed, plastic" taste that regular grocery store milks have. Plus, the fact that it is organic only adds to the wholesome nature of this item.

Confectioner's Sugar

I used to eat this by it self! Wholesome Sweetener's FAir Trade Organic Powdered Sugar has a wonderful taste to non-organic traditional powdered sugar. I also used this to make my homemade butter cream frosting for my cakes and the taste is amazing!! Everyone who eats it raves about how good it is. You can try another organic brand as well!

You need to know that you can be a bit naughty and still consume Foods that your body can break down. The easiest thing to do when you have a recipe is to simply substitute it for organic!!
