If you love baking or making delicious chocolate treats, you’ve probably encountered the need to melt chocolate. While there are different methods to achieve this, using a Thermomix makes the process not only quick and easy but also ensures that the chocolate melts smoothly without any risk of burning. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through the process of melting chocolate in the Thermomix.

What You Will Need

  • Thermomix TM6 or TM5
  • High-quality chocolate chips or bars
  • Spatula
  • Bowl or container for melting chocolate

Step 1: Break the Chocolate

Begin by breaking the chocolate into smaller pieces. If using chocolate bars, chop them into small chunks with a knife. This step helps the chocolate to melt faster and more evenly.

Step 2: Set the Temperature and Time

Pour the broken chocolate into the mixing bowl of your Thermomix. Set the temperature to 50°C and the time to 3 minutes. This setting gently melts the chocolate, preventing it from becoming too hot and losing its consistency.

Step 3: Melt the Chocolate

Attach the butterfly whisk to the blade assembly. This helps to mix the chocolate while it melts, ensuring a smooth and glossy texture. Start the Thermomix on low speed and gradually increase it to speed 2. Watch as the chocolate starts to melt, making sure to scrape down any chocolate stuck to the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Continue mixing until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.

Step 4: Transfer and Use

Once the chocolate has melted, you can transfer it to a bowl or container for further use in your recipes. Be cautious, as the chocolate will be hot, and handle the container with care. Your melted chocolate is now ready to be used in various dessert recipes or for dipping fruits and treats.

Tips for Melting Chocolate in the Thermomix

  • Always use high-quality chocolate for the best results.
  • Avoid using wet utensils or containers, as even a small amount of water can cause the chocolate to seize.
  • Keep an eye on the chocolate while it melts to prevent overheating and burning.
  • If the chocolate does seize or become lumpy, try adding a small amount of vegetable oil or cocoa butter and mix it until smooth.
  • Experiment with different chocolate flavors and combinations to create unique desserts.

Melting chocolate in the Thermomix is a hassle-free way to achieve perfectly melted chocolate every time. Whether you're making chocolate ganache, truffles, or beautifully coated desserts, the Thermomix simplifies the process. Follow this step-by-step guide, and you'll be ready to add delicious melted chocolate to your favorite recipes.
