I am 60, I am #Vegan, and I just learned how to make chocolate from scratch.

This has been kept from us. It is eye-blinkingly easy. The effort : reward ratio is beyond what you can imagine, because everything you can imagine starts and ends with chocolate.

Nestlé, Hershey, Mars you motherfuckers, now I know Kung Fu.

Edit: Adding the recipe I started with. Sorry I didn’t put it here in the first place, we learn. https://www.asaucykitchen.com/homemade-chocolate-with-cocoa-butter/#mv-create-recipe

@goodthinking I wonder if one could add some coffee grounds for added flavor without preventing the chocolate from forming correctly?

@trainguyrom Almost sure you could, toward the end.

Or peppermint oil. Andes mints, on demand.

Note to self: Maybe this isn’t hell.
