Benefits of having a healthy relationship with chocolate

Image
  Whether it's on top of ice cream, filled with peanut butter or inside a cookie, sweet chocolate is how many people satisfy a sweet tooth. Stirring the souls of chocolate lovers is cutting-edge research demonstrating the health benefits of chocolate. But is this research true? Small amounts of dark chocolate are beneficial — but it's not intended to be a daily component of your eating plan. But first, not just any chocolate is healthy For chocolate to come with health benefits, it must be 70% cacao or higher, and low in sugar. A milk chocolate bar may contain as little as 10% cacao, while a dark chocolate bar could contain up to 90%. Dark chocolate has about half the sugar of milk chocolate, making it more satisfying (meaning you eat less of it). In addition, the added sugar in milk chocolate can mask other flavors and leave you craving more. Dark chocolate also has more fiber and minerals than milk chocolate. And the benefits don't stop there. Chocolate is a good source

What’s the difference between tarts and pies?

Image
  Whether you’ve got it in your head that a pie might just be a giant tart—or is a tart just a fancy, snazzed-up pie?—here’s a few ways to see beyond the crust. Considering how to make chocolate tart ? Get to know the difference between pie and tart first. What is a pie? Pie is a baked dish featuring a fruit filling encased in dough, which is called a  pie crust  once baked. Pie doughs can be made into a double-crust (filling is fully encased), single-crust (open top, with a single blind-baked bottom crust), or somewhere in between (fancy lattice-top crust). Pie recipes can be savory or sweet. Basically, if something tastes good outside of a pie, it probably tastes  really  good inside one (think, apples in  classic apple pie , to mixed berries and roasted butternut squash). Be sure to keep moisture content in mind, especially with meat-based preparations: no one likes soggy, undercooked crust, which is exactly what you’ll get if you bake raw meat. Brown it off in a pan before adding i

Pick the right dessert to save calories

  Some desserts are “better” than others. See if you choose the right ones. Brownie vs. chocolate layer cake vs. chocolate mousse Your best bet is the eggless mousse cake or the layer cake, since both carry about 550 calories for a 6-ounce portion. A typical 6-ounce brownie has about 600 calories. However, many restaurants serve even larger brownies, 7 ounces or more. Plus, restaurants don’t stop with the basic square of chocolate fudge. A brownie dessert typically comes with ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, pecans, chocolate chunks and a cherry on top. All this can add up to more than 1,200 calories. To satisfy your desire for chocolate, try sugar-free pudding made with skim milk. Drop in a few chocolate chips while it’s hot or top it with light whipped cream. You can also make no pudge brownies, a fat-free brownie mix using yogurt. If you’re out to dinner, ask about healthy desserts. Cheesecake vs. carrot cake vs. pound cake Plain cheesecake is your best bet at about 430 c

  Fudge is a sumptuous treat which can be found anywhere: whether it’s wrapped up in a little bag in Cornwall, served as a slab at a funfair, or cut up by hand in an artisan confectionery shop, we just can’t get enough of chocolate fudge .

Baking tips for perfect cake

  With every recipe and tip, the goal is to help you become a better baker. Here are the certain choco lave cake baking tips that needs to be considered: This useful information will help guarantee your next cake is the perfect cake. 1. Follow the recipe This sounds obvious, right? Following the recipe is the most important cake baking tip you’ll ever hear/read. It’s also the most ignored. We often substitute ingredients in recipes based on what we have. Likewise, make sure you’re using the appropriate size pan. Unless otherwise noted, don’t substitute a 6-inch cake pan for a 9-inch cake pan or a 9-inch round pan for a 9-inch square pan. You can *usually* get away with swapping 8-inch round cake pans for 9-inch round cake pans (and vice versa). 8-inch cakes will take longer since they’ll likely be thicker. But to prevent dense cakes, sunken cakes, overflowing cakes, and flimsy cakes, use the correct size pan. 2. Room temperature Room temperature isn’t listed next to ingredients for fu
