Homemade khoya chocolate
Homemade khoya chocolate

I wanted to use leftover khoya that was in the freezer for a week. So I decided to make milk Kova. I was craving for chocolate at that time. When I had searched the refrigerator, I had found out that my hungry kids had finished all the chocolates. Some cooking chocolate was left. Tried this Khoya stuffed chocolate recipe, and it came out well. So I thought of sharing this.

Khoya/mawa is a evaporated , thickened milk solid till all its moisture evaporates. Khoya is prevalent in Indian, Nepal, Bangladesh and Pakistan. Khoya takes place in many dessert and sweet around Northern parts of India.

Khoya can be found in the freezer section of the Indian shops/marts. They will come in blocks.

Khoya can be used to make burfi,peda, Gulab Jamun, carrot halwa, deep-fried khoya dumplings.

Khoya /Kova/Mava

Different names for the same product.Different parts of India uses these names to identify the milk solids.In southern part they call kova/paal kova.

Mainly khoya is available in two types either sweetened or unsweetened.

What do we need to make khoya stuffed chocolate

Khoya

Khoya is a thickened milk solid. Milk is boiled in low heat to evaporate the moisture for a long time to thicken it. Khoya which I used is an unsweetened version.

Cooking chocolate

The sweetened cooking chocolate works fine here. If you prefer dark chocolate adjust the sugar level when you add.

Dairy

Other than Khoya, butter and milk are the dairy products I used. I prefer to use low-fat milk. If you prefer you can choose full-fat milk.

Nuts

Chopped nuts like almonds and pistachio suits well for this chocolate for a crunchy bite along with smooth khoya filling.

Sugar

Any type of sweetner works in this recipe.I am using raw sugar here.

  • Cooking chocolate-100gm
  • Sugar-7 tsp
  • Chopped nuts almond,pistachio-3 tbsp

Instructions
