METHOD:
To melt the cacao butter: After weighing the butter chop
as small as possible or grate -This speeds up melting
time, then either melt in a bowl in the dehydrator
or
over a bowl of hot water Bain Marie style. You
will take 2 TBS of this melted butter for the Fudge, the
rest is for the chocolate.
Fudge: In a mini food
processor like the PB200 or a coffee mill grind the
cashews till fine, then add the other ingredients to
make a fudge-like paste.
Chocolate:
To the melted
cacao add all the ingredients and stir in quickly, I
find it best to use a mini cappuccino whisk for this,
and keep the bowl over some warm water. If the mixture
is too dry, just squirt in a little more agave.
Assembly: Now the fun begins...Try a mixture of;
Rolling balls of fudge then pressing that down
into the base of the moulds and topping with chocolate,
OR pouring in a little chocolate, then moulding a layer
of fudge to fit the mould, pop that in, then pour more
chocolate on top to create a layered chocolate, OR
placing a rolled ball of fudge on a little chocolate,
then pouring more chocolate over this to create a fudge
centre. You can also decorate with a few goji berries.
For Special occasions or gifts, you could decorate with
a little gold leaf. Refrigerate until set. |
