Notes
To Melt chocolate - Take chocolate squares in a microwave safe bowl, add 2 tsp milk and microwave in high for 40-45 seconds and use it in the recipe.
This dough will be crumble type so add milk to make it a soft dough. Do not add more milk just for binding and try kneading the dough for few minutes. This will help to get a smooth and soft dough.

ReplyDeleteNov 20 - the recipe says to add in 'the melted chocolate' - to what, is this referring.....the 'optional Choc Chips???'' or is there a missing ingredient? Or does this mean the 'cocoa powder....
ReplyDeleteThanks........
yes.,i missed to add it in the Ingredients, now i added. You need 1/4 cup melted chocolate for this recipe. You can use any baking chocolate or dark chocolate or chocolate chips. Melt in microwave with 2 tsp milk and use it in the recipe. Hope this helps.
