COCOA BLOCKS
Like fudge on a stick. Swirl these blocks into a mug of hot milk and enjoy luscious hot chocolate, or nibble the chocolate blocks directly from the stick. These cocoa blocks are fantastic for kids and adults alike! They taste amazing and are fun to swirl in your hot beverage-- coffee or hot milk.Think of these confections as you would ganache. They will keep at room temperature 3-4 days, in the fridge about 10 days, in the freezer up to 30 days. Prep time does not include the overnight set-up time.

Steps:
- Line an 8" x 8" pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Heat the cream and condensed milk over low heat until steaming.
- Remove from the heat and add the chocolate; allow it to gently melt.
- After about 10 minutes, return the chocolate mixture to low heat to completely melt the chocolate.
- Whisk vigorously until the mixture is thick and shiny.
- Add a few drops of flavoring oil if you like; hazelnut, coffee, or vanilla are popular flavors.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the pan; shake the pan gently to level.
- Sprinkle with cocoa, if desired.
- Set aside overnight to slowly set up.
- Run a knife around the edge of the pan and turn out onto a clean cutting surface.
- Slice into 1 ΒΌ" cubes. Heat a knife in hot water and wipe dry before each cut, for smoothest cuts.
- Stick a wooden stick into the center of each block.
- Roll in cocoa or crushed peppermint candy, if desired.
- Wrap in waxed paper, parchment, or plastic wrap to store.

[email protected]This cocoa block recipe is a waste of time. The blocks were bland and tasteless. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.

[email protected]I'm a beginner in the kitchen and this recipe was a bit too challenging for me. The instructions were unclear and I ended up making a mess. I'll definitely try a simpler recipe next time.

[email protected]I love cocoa blocks, but this recipe didn't really do it for me. The blocks were a bit too sweet for my taste and they didn't have a very strong cocoa flavor. I'll probably try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]These cocoa blocks are pretty good. They're easy to make and they taste good, but they're not the best cocoa blocks I've ever had. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]I've been making cocoa blocks for years, but this recipe is by far the best. The cocoa flavor is rich and intense, and the blocks are so smooth and creamy. I'll definitely be making these again and again!

[email protected]This cocoa block recipe is a lifesaver! I'm not much of a baker, but I can follow simple instructions. The blocks turned out perfectly and tasted delicious. My kids loved them!
