I have some of the seriously cocoa laden Green and Blacks...

[ManhattanMama]

Can I cook with it? My chocolate tastes are very uneducated - Galaxy or Dairy Milk all the way. Was wondering if I can use it to make some kind of chocolatey pudding or cake?

I have some of the 75% and the 90% (I think).

Any recipes gratefully received!

Oh my - yes you can... What do you want to cook?

There are recipes inside the paper label, good ones... (for inspiration)

OO fAB.i AM OFF TO GET mY gREENA ND bLACKS COOK BOOKGot it free with 3 bars of their choc.Might be a while as ds2 trashing joint.What sort of things do you like?Cakes,nuts,There is a fab refrigerator cake recipe i have made loads with different things

Cakes are good - hot puddings even better (hot chocolate fudgey cake with ice cream possibly the best food ever).

Nuts are good - not keen on fruit with chocolate though (raisins especially are the devils work).

Cheers!

I've just used some of their 75% to make truffles... absolute heaven!

ere is a start...

Brownies!!

150g chocolate
150g butter
About 200- 240g fine sugar
3 eggs
75g flour (self raising)
I heaped dessert spoon cocoa

About 75g- 100g white chocolate cut into chips

Melt the first 2 ingredients in a heatproof bowl over simmering water.
Take off heat.
Stir in the sugar and cocoa, add the beaten eggs one at a time, fold in the flour, add the white chocolate chips last.

Pour mixture into a lined and greased square tin (9" by 9"). Put it in a preheated oven at gas mark 4 for 18 minutes then keep checking every 3 minutes using a skewer. It should not come out clean but should not be completely liquid either. These are meant to be slightly gooey.

Leave to cool in the tin for at least an hour before cutting into cubes. Enjoy.

I have the green and blacks recipe book do you want me to see what looks nice in there?

Yes please Ledodgy - that would be great. Have got tons of the stuff (thank you present from a friend!).

BoogieWoogie - I tried the brownies and they were great! Thanks for that recipe!
