How do you make chocolate candy without milk?

Question by Charlie: How do you make chocolate candy without milk?
My daughter and some of my relatives are allergic (not lactose intolerant but fully allergic) to milk. There are chocolate candies from specialty shops that don’t use milk in their chocolate but the cost an arm and a leg. I was hoping to make some “safe” chocolate candies for them for Christmas as they love chocolate but can’t eat anything with milk in it. I’d love to find a way to make candy bars, etc. WITHOUT the use of milk (soy, rice milk, margarine, etc would be okay). Thanks!
