Ingredients

375g dark chocolate

13 drops of ginger cooking essential oil

½ teaspoon of grounded cardamom

1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder.

Method

Firstly melt down dark chocolate on a low heat. This is best done using a bain marie, as to not scold the sugar in the chocolate.

 

Temper the chocolate at 30 degrees centigrade. To temper the chocolate it must be heated and cooled, to 30 degrees and then left to cool until crystals begin to form and then reheated again to 30 degrees. Tempering is what gives chocolate it’s luxurious shiny finish and it’s satisfying snap.
Now add the ginger cooking oil, the cinnamon powder and the ground cardamom.
Cover the table with parchment paper and pour the melted chocolate onto it, creating a lovely slab, now spread the chocolate out evenly with a spatula, trying to cover most of the parchment paper.
Now leave it to set at room temperature until it is hard and brittle, this may take around 2 hours.
Lastly, break it into small pieces and enjoy! We assure you will …
