Chocolate butter is loved not only by children, but also by their parents. But such a homemade product is characterized by a particularly pleasant consistency, the taste of which everyone knows from childhood. The energy value of this delicacy is quite high, and, as you know, it is not dietary. But this does not mean that you can refrain from using it and not indulge yourself with a small morsel.
The benefits of chocolate butter
A confectionery product based on butter and cocoa powder will help normalize blood pressure. It serves as an excellent cough medicine, prevents blood clots and prevents dementia in old age.
However, homemade chocolate treats can be harmful. This product is banned for people who are obese and diabetic. Since it contains nitrogen-containing components that harm metabolic processes.
What is chocolate butter made from?
The main ingredients of many favorite treats are butter and cocoa powder. But in order for the product to acquire an unsurpassed aroma and an incredibly delicate and soft consistency, additional ingredients are used, such as honey, vanillin, powdered sugar and chocolate.
When choosing butter, pay attention to a high degree of quality. The best product is homemade, because there is no need to doubt its naturalness and quality.

Cooking chocolate butter
1. Place the chocolate in a bowl and melt it in the steam bath. The container with chocolate should not touch the boiling water in the container underneath.
2. Keep the chocolate in a water bath until it acquires a soft, sticky consistency.
3. Add softened butter, cocoa powder and powdered sugar to the chocolate container. Before cooking, remove the butter from the oven in advance so that it reaches room temperature and becomes soft.
4. Stir the chocolate mass well until smooth.
5. Pour the mass into convenient molds, from which it will be convenient to remove it later. I recommend using silicone molds, in which the oil takes on a beautiful shape and gets out without difficulty.
