Heaven at home

I am a BIG chocolate freak - I LOVE chocolate in any form: Cakes, chocolates, spreads, milkshakes, cookies. Believe me, I could go on and on!! This afternoon I was thinking about one of my brothers. Every time I went to his place, he'd bug me till I agreed to make chocolate sauce.And we'd have it with biscuits, rusks, bread, ice-cream and have the time of our lives! :)
Today, I came back from work with chocolate on my mind and decided to try making some at home. Without further ado, I give you the simple recipe to make some yummy homemade chocolate spread.



Ingredients:
Oat meal digestive cookies - 3, crushed into a fine powder
Sugar - 3 tablespoons
Milk - 1/2 cup
Butter - 3 tablespoons
Cocoa powder - 5 teaspoons
Chopped alomonds, cashews and raisins - 2 tablespoons

Note: You can substitute Oat meal cookies with any plain biscuits.

Method:
1. Add butter to a pan and heat it until it melts. Add the dry fruits and allow them to roast a little.
2. Add the crushed cookies, sugar, cocoa powder and stir so that no lumps are formed.
3. Add milk and keep stirring till the mixture becomes thick.
4. Pour it on a greased plate. Allow to cool a little before using.



You can prevent the chocolate from sticking to the bottom of the pan by placing a pan of water beneath the first pan, thereby providing an indirect source of heat.
