My family and I love homemade chocolates…From Atlantic city, New Jersey to Ooti, India… any place that said homemade chocolates, we were there . We would try almost all kinds, cashews, coconut, caramel and our most favorite Almond. I would always look forward to our trips or spend a fortune online to have them shipped to us.
Finally, one day I got down to trying my own and Oh boy! They were out of the world. And since then, everything changed… Now I make chocolates for all different occasions. These were made on Halloween 2020. With the global Pandemic hitting us all so hard, Halloween isn’t that spooky anymore. I am just totally spooked out since the start of this year watching businesses shut down and so many sufferings. But like there is always a ray of hope hidden behind dark clouds and we should always look at the brighter side and so these chocolates were made with a happy heart full of hope.
I made this with dark chocolate, added cream and shortening. Making it a little colorful, I mixed in a few m&m’s, sprinkled some crushed nuts and sprinkles. I drizzled some candy melt in Red and Orange. Finally, decorated it with some bat and pumpkin decoration for cupcakes. I only used things that I had at home, but you can always go fancier.
I made these and cut them uneven like homemade chocolate bars. But you can always get molds and make them any which way you desire. Enjoy!!!
