Chocolate Wadi

Ingredients:
½ cup Coco Powder
1 cup Milk Powder
¼ cup Unsalted Butter
½ cup Sugar
¼ cup water
Almond pieces for decoration

Method:
1) Sift Coco Powder and Milk Powder together.
2) Grease Polpat or Pizza board and rolling pin with butter.
3) Heat a pan. Add sugar and water in the pan to make sugar syrup. The syrup should be at the “soft-ball” stage (Goliband Pak). That means that when you drop a bit of it into cold water to cool it down, it will form a soft ball. If you remove the ball from water, it will flatten like a pancake after a few moments in your hand.
4) Once you get perfect consistency of sugar syrup, remove the pan from heat. Immediately add butter and stir fast in one direction. Immediately add sifted powder. Stir continuously. There should not be any lumps. It will create shiny thick mixture.
5) Quickly pour this mixture on Polpat/ pizza board and roll this mixture evenly. Make a 1 cm layer. Gently cut it in 2 inch square with knife. Once the mixture is cool, separate the pieces.
6) Decorate with thin almond pieces.

Note:
1) Sugar syrup should be of perfect consistency. If sugar syrup becomes thick or if you used less butter then the mixture will become dry.
2) Milk powder should be very fine. Some milk powders are little granulated. It could reduce the taste of chocolate.
3) If the weather is cold, the mixture gets dry very soon. If it happened, then put the mixture on heat and add little butter. Stir fast and pour the mixture on Polpat/ pizza board. Roll and make chocolate pieces as per the above method.
