My 3 Ideas for Cooking Leftover Chocolate.

Every year in the kitchen cupboard there are hundreds of grams of chocolate that accumulate.

It must be said that after the Christmas or Easter holiday periods, our children no longer want it.

These leftover chocolates, I used to throw them away... yes... But reluctantly.

So I decided to cook them as if they were chocolate bars. After all, chocolate, whatever its presentation, is still chocolate!

1. Simply chocolate cake

My 3 Ideas for Cooking Leftover Chocolate.

I broken the topics into pieces , weighed what I needed and made my chocolate cake as usual. As if it were normal chocolate in fact.

If you have chocolate filled eggs , you can put them as is in the center of your dough, before putting it in the oven, for a delicious melting heart .

I can guarantee you that it was just as good, and that everyone saw nothing but fire! Very handy for recycling Christmas chocolates!

2. Chocolate mousse

My 3 Ideas for Cooking Leftover Chocolate.

I also made a chocolate mousse with leftover chocolates!

Again, no need to worry about it. Just follow this chocolate mousse recipe.

This is a great recipe with leftover Christmas chocolate. But it also works for recycling Easter chocolates.

3. Yogurt cake with chocolate chips

My 3 Ideas for Cooking Leftover Chocolate.

Another idea is to make a simple cake type yogurt cake and add the chocolate chips (as if they were nuggets) to the dough before baking.

You can also make cookies with leftover Easter or Christmas chocolate.

Savings achieved

Everyone enjoys eating what we haven't wanted for weeks:no more waste!

This year I have already collected 1 kg of Easter chocolate.

I have found that the average price of holiday treats is €25 per kg.

So here is already nearly €37.50 saved at Easter.

As there are chances that it will be the same at Christmas, so 3 kg of chocolate per year would go in the trash without my trick, i.e. €75 per year!
