  • 1 oz honey

Cocoa Spread Steps

To prepare this delicious cocoa spread, start by pouring the previously sifted unsweetened cocoa into the bowl of a mixer (or food processor) to avoid lumps. Add the honey, which will give natural sweetness and a velvety note, and finally the cold refrigerator water, essential for achieving the right consistency.

Turn on the mixer and let the ingredients blend for a few minutes, until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

Your cocoa spread is ready to be enjoyed. You can use it to fill freshly baked croissants, spread it on slices of bread or toast, or indulge in tasting it directly by the spoonful. It is also perfect as a filling for crêpes or pancakes.

Cocoa Spread Storage and Tips

The spread can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, in a hermetically sealed glass jar, to maintain its freshness and creamy consistency.

If you prefer a sweeter and more delicate taste, you can replace the unsweetened cocoa with pre-sweetened cocoa.

Tip: before using, leave the jar at room temperature for a few minutes, so the spread will be softer and easier to spread.
