Chocolate Recipes You Can’t Say No To
It’s been more than 400 years since chocolate was introduced, and our lives are all the more better for it. Celebrate Chocolate Day in style and make chocolate the star with these delicious recipes!
The history of chocolate goes back more than 2500 years ago to the Aztecs. They believed that chocolate was a gift from their god of wisdom, and who are we to question? Chocolate has undeniably become an integral part of various cuisines globally, and in very different ways too.
As many would argue, chocolate is one of humankind’s greatest culinary inventions. In honour of World Chocolate Day, here are some recipes that incorporate chocolate as the main ingredient. Make the most of this special day when you’ve got the right recipe that comes together in minutes, and is delicious enough to share with family and friends!
It’s Time For Some Fudge
Great for a pick-me-up snack and great when you want a luxurious chocolatey taste, fudge is the perfect choice for any type of day. It doesn’t take long to prepare, and you can enjoy it for a while after you’ve prepared a batch. This recipe by chef Kunal Kapoor incorporates caramel and chocolate, along with some almonds to give it the extra crunch.
While it comes together in minutes, you might have to wait a bit before tasting it. It’s great to give as a gift too, so make a big batch to share the love.
Make It Healthier
You might be trying to eat healthier, but are still in the mood for dessert when meal-time ends, and that’s perfectly fine! You don’t need to give up dessert just because you’re trying to stick to a healthier meal plan. Chef and curator of Tasty Food Tales and Table Scapes Natasha Mehta takes you through an easy chia seed pudding recipe that can satiate your cravings and give you tons of health benefits.

Try Something Unique
Most of us have only seen chocolate as part of one category: desserts. But that doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t make it a main dish too. Paranthas are a quintessential breakfast staple in most homes, and when you’re tired of having the same old breakfast, it’s time to try this sweeter version instead!
