How to Make Semi Sweet Chocolate From Cocoa Powder
You can use unsweetened cocoa powder to make semi sweet chocolate for recipes or to eat as a snack by adding a few simple ingredients that you probably already have in your home. The flavor of your homemade chocolate will depend on the quality of the cocoa you use, so if you want to make candies, choose a high quality cocoa powder. Once your chocolate is set, you can break it into pieces to use as chocolate chips or shave it with a vegetable peeler to add chocolate curls to your desserts.

- 1/2 cup of cocoa powder
- 3 tbsp. of sugar
