How do I sweeten unsweetened chocolate?

Q : I'm trying to make vegan treats for my friend but the only milkless chocolate they had at the store was unsweetened chocolate. I've been adding sugar but it doesn't seem to be working. How can I sweeten it without using milk?
A : If you have confectioners sugar (powdered) add it a teaspoon at a time to the unsweetened chocolate until it tastes sweet enough. If you don't have powdered sugar you can use regular granulated sugar but you will have to put some in a cup or something and then using a spoon grind the sugar against the side of the cup until the sugar breaks up and becomes finer. The chocolate and sugar will readily mix together once the two are nearly the same consistency.The sugar and cocoa MUST be combined while dry or else they will seperate when moisure is added.

A brownie recipe calls for unsweetened chocolate but could I use chocolate chips instead?

Q : Also, if the recipe calls for 2 ounces of unsweetened chocolate how much would that be in mL/cups in chocolate chips? Thanks!
A : Not reliably, no. There is a distinct differenced in taste between unsweetened baking chocolate (100% cacao solids) and chocolate chips (really good ones are 65% cacao solids at best - the rest is various additives.) Also, the sugar content of the chocolate chips will change the basic chemistry of the recipe.

You could substitute chocolate chips in a brownie recipe that called for "semi-sweet chocolate."

how do I use an unsweetened chocolate baking bar in a recipe?

Q : I have an unsweetened bar of Sharfenberger baking chocolate. Almost every recipe I have uses cocoa POWDER . Do I just break off an equal amount of baking bar and add the melted chocolate in place of the powder?
Clare, if I use the bar then I need to reduce the fat I add by the amont I'd have added if I used cocoa powder? Thanks!
I dont think I can use the bar in place of chips..the bar is UNSWEETENED...like 95% cacao it says on the front..so I gotta use sugar to sweeten it!
A : no. if you need powder, you need powder. with baking, recipes are formulas and you need to consider liquid, fat, leavening and caramelization of all the ingredients. Save the block for when you need chips or melted chocolate and buy some powder for these recipes.

How do you make homemade milk chocolate out of unsweetened chocolate squares?

Q : I would want to make a chocolate bar, i have 8 oz of unsweetened chocolate squares. Does anyone know of a recipe I could use?
A : you cannot easily replicate milk chocolate at home for a number of reasons. milk chocolate isn't made with milk, it's made with milk solids...your best bet is just to buy a chocolate bar. if you really want to just play in the kitchen...get a double boiler going...once the water's boiling, drop the heat to low, add your chocolate, add your sugar, try adding milk solids...my guess is you'll fail (no offence, just how it's going to go)...and then pour into a mold and cool (you'll probably need to use your fridge).

seriously...if you want to make your own chocolate bar, buy the chocolate you want to use, and melt it down, and put it in the mold. it sounds cool to make your own chocolate, but there are so many variables that go into it from how pure chocolate is in what you have to how much of other ingrediants are in the chocolate you have. the latter is not something you can just look at the package and just find out. if you're just looking for something fun to do in the kitchen, just do whatever you want with it...experiment, and maybe you'll create something that works, but if you want to do something right keep it simple...buy the chocolate you want to use and make it with that...best of luck

How do you make homemade milk chocolate out of unsweetened chocolate squares?

Q : I would want to make a chocolate bar, i have 8 oz of unsweetened chocolate squares. Does anyone know of a recipe I could use?
A : you cannot easily replicate milk chocolate at home for a number of reasons. milk chocolate isn't made with milk, it's made with milk solids...your best bet is just to buy a chocolate bar. if you really want to just play in the kitchen...get a double boiler going...once the water's boiling, drop the heat to low, add your chocolate, add your sugar, try adding milk solids...my guess is you'll fail (no offence, just how it's going to go)...and then pour into a mold and cool (you'll probably need to use your fridge).

seriously...if you want to make your own chocolate bar, buy the chocolate you want to use, and melt it down, and put it in the mold. it sounds cool to make your own chocolate, but there are so many variables that go into it from how pure chocolate is in what you have to how much of other ingrediants are in the chocolate you have. the latter is not something you can just look at the package and just find out. if you're just looking for something fun to do in the kitchen, just do whatever you want with it...experiment, and maybe you'll create something that works, but if you want to do something right keep it simple...buy the chocolate you want to use and make it with that...best of luck

how to make ganche from unsweetened chocolate?

Q : I have a lot unsweetened chocolate squares and would like to know how to make truffles.
A : Ganache is just chocolate and cream. (For people who don't think chocolate itself has enough fat in it. 8^) ). Generally you chop the chocolate into small pieces, then pour hot cream over it. The chocolate melts, you mix it up, and there you have ganache!

If it's unsweetened you add sugar! (Duh!) Not a lot. It's supposed to be 'semi-sweet'. I use Spenda because I'm diabetic, and it renders them totally harmless! Can you imagine totally harmless chocolate? 8^) (Except for all that fat, of course.)

Truffles are very easy to make. There are many recipes but mostly they are chocolate and cream, and maybe some liqueur for flavor. MANY flavors go well with chocolate! You make the mixture, chill it in the fridge, then roll it in little balls (carefully, so as not to warm it up with your hands). You roll the little balls in cocoa or crushed nuts or cocoanut or something to keep them from sticking together or to the plate. A cool thing to do is to divide the recipe into several bowls, flavored with different flavorings, then rolled in different things to show which they are. If you bring a plate of these to work and put them on the table in the break room, they won't last ten minutes! 8^)

A : no. if you need powder, you need powder. with baking, recipes are formulas and you need to consider liquid, fat, leavening and caramelization of all the ingredients. Save the block for when you need chips or melted chocolate and buy some powder for these recipes.
