Are you a chocolate lover? Do you want to make your own chocolate spread? Try to make one.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup (5.5 ounces) almonds, roasted
• 9 ounces milk chocolate, coarsely chopped
• 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
• 2 tablespoons almond oil or mild vegetable oil, such as canola
• Heaping 3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Procedure:

1. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave until smooth.
2. In a blender or food processor, grind the almonds until they break down into a fine powder. Add the oil and process until it forms a smooth paste (it should resemble a loose natural peanut butter). Add the sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, and process until well incorporated.
3. Carefully add the melted chocolate; blend well.
4. Decant into a storage container (such as a clean jam jar) and allow to cool to room temperature; the spread will thicken up considerably upon cooling.

DIY Chocolate Syrup

Are you craving for chocolate syrup? Make your own chocolate syrup. It's very simple. Just follow the procedure below.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup packed cocoa powder
• 1 cup milk
• 2 cups sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Procedure:

1. Whisk cocoa powder and milk together thoroughly in a large saucepan.
2. Heat and whisk to dissolve the cocoa. (I use medium-low heat).
3. Add the sugar and stir/whisk to dissolve. Be sure the sugar has dissolved before continuing on, so your syrup is not grainy.
4. Bring to a boil and boil for 3 minutes. Be sure to watch this VERY carefully. Mine has a tendency to want to boil over immediately, so I have to continuously take it on and off of the burner.
5. Remove from heat and stir in salt and vanilla extract.
6. Let cool completely and skim off any skin that may have formed.
7. Pour into a clean/sterile jar with a spout and store covered in the refrigerator.

Enjoy making your own chocolate syrup!
