Ingredients
- 1 cup of cocoa butter
- 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup of powdered milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
Step 1: Melt the cocoa butter
Begin by melting the cocoa butter in a heatproof bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water. Make sure to stir occasionally until the cocoa butter is completely melted and smooth.
Step 2: Add powdered sugar and powdered milk
Once the cocoa butter is melted, remove the bowl from the heat. Add the powdered sugar and powdered milk to the bowl and whisk until well combined. The mixture should be smooth and free of lumps.
Step 3: Add vanilla extract and salt
Next, stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor. Mix the ingredients until they are fully incorporated into the white chocolate mixture.
Step 4: Pour into molds
If you have chocolate molds, now is the time to put them to good use. Pour the white chocolate mixture into the molds, filling each cavity to the top. If you don’t have molds, you can pour the white chocolate onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 5: Set and chill
Allow the white chocolate to set at room temperature for a few minutes. Then, transfer the molds or baking sheet to the refrigerator and let the white chocolate chill for at least 2 hours or until it becomes firm and solid.
Step 6: Unmold and enjoy!
Once the white chocolate has hardened, remove it from the molds or baking sheet. If you used a baking sheet, you can break it into smaller pieces. Your homemade white chocolate is now ready to be enjoyed! Use it as a delicious topping for desserts, melt it for dipping fruits, or savor it on its own.
