Making chocolate at home is a lot easier than people realise and for me having a multi-allergy child it is something I make often. I take baggies of it with me to birthday parties etc so he doesn't miss out when the other kids get some

Steps

30 mins

1

First melt the cocoa butter either in a bain marie or in the microwave. If microwaving stir every 30 seconds until melted, it should only take a few minutes. Don't boil the butter
2

Now gradually add and stir in the cocoa powder
3

Add the salt and flavouring, then add the sugar to taste
4

To make prettier chocolates that won't melt so easily at room temperature, you need to temper the mixture. Please refer to my tempering link below

5

If you're not so worried about that, pour the mixture into a jug so you have better control of the flow
6

Now pour into moulds. I kept the plastic that were inside the kids christmas advent calendars. They are a perfect thickness, not too deep. I keep a lot of these type of things!
7

Let set for half an hour in the fridge
8

Pop out of the moulds and store in a lidded container in a cool, dark place
9

This recipe makes a darker chocolate. To make a milk chocolate, swap out some of the cocoa powder for powdered milk. For a dairy & soy-free version use powdered rice milk or coconut milk. You can buy both on the Amazon website
