It wont work as it will be a soft frosting, you will need to use proper chocolate so it will go hard in fridge. The hardest frosting with cocoa powder would be made with marscaponi cheese icing sugar and cocoa, but it will still be quite soft sorry.

Substituting 3 tbsp. of chocolate chips with cocoa powder?

Question by At a deadlock: Substituting 3 tbsp. of chocolate chips with cocoa powder?
I’m making “chocolate cake in a mug”. I only have cocoa as my source of chocolate. The recipe already calls for 3 tbsp. of cocoa, so could adding more harm it? If not, how much and with what else (like oil) would need to be a decent substitute for the chocolate chips?

Best answer:

Answer by BuddhaTea
Sorry but I think this substitution is a really bad idea. The cake will just not turn out remotely as it should. If you really don’t want to go out & buy some chocolate (a candy bar will do), then I think you should just make something else.

How do I make chocolate powder for ice cream?

Question by Monica: How do I make chocolate powder for ice cream?
How do I make “chocolate powder” from unsweetened cocoa powder?

Best answer:

Answer by Rae du Soleil
Most commercial chocolate powders are a simple mixture of unsweetened cocoa powder and sugar. Sometimes they contain dried milk powder but that’s more likely if the chocolate powder is made to make hot chocolate beverage.

You may have to experiment to find the mix of cocoa to sugar that works for your uses.

Answer by Great Shogun Shien
It’s not a big difference, but plain chocolate is better because you will get a more natural taste from it, and it’s also easier to make with plain chocolate.

Q&A: How to make melting chocolate (like the chocolate chips) out of cocoa powder?

Question by Lorie: How to make melting chocolate (like the chocolate chips) out of cocoa powder?
I am trying to figure out how to use cocoa powder to make a meltable chocolate. Like the kind you melt the chocolate chip to make chocolate covered pretzels or cherries etc.

Best answer:

Answer by karat4top
I don’t think you can make that kind of chocolate from cocoa. I can’t get to my substitution information at the moment, but I remember in my Betty Crocker Cookbook there was a way to combine cocoa powder with oil and other stuff to make a similar consistency to melted chocolate of some type. Perhaps check the Betty Crocker site for substitutions? I don’t think you can get it to a consistency to dip anything in, because then it wouldn’t harden.

How to Make Chocolate Milk Using Cocoa Powder

Who doesn’t love chocolate milk? A refreshing drink to cool you off in the summer. Whether it’s after school or after dinner. Everyone knows that milk is a good way to get your nutrients, but what about those fussy children? How about chocolate milk? Pre made chocolate milk and and chocolate syrup can be unhealthy and full of empty calories.  How about using cocoa powder to make your chocolate milk instead? Cocoa powder is all natural and has been around for a long time.  So instead of using syrup to make your chocolate milk, try cocoa powder instead.

The most common way to make chocolate milk is with syrup. .

What You Will Need:
1 tbsp. Cocoa powder
2 tbsp. Sugar
Milk
Glass
Spoon

Step 1: For the best results use a tall glass. Once you have your glass picked out, add 2 tbsp. sugar into the glass.

Step 2: Add 1 tbsp. all natural cocoa powder into the glass (I like to add the sugar first so that no cocoa powder gets into the sugar bag).

Step 3: Add just enough milk to wet the ingredients. Using a spoon, mix the contents into a paste.
Step 4: Fill the cup the rest of the way with milk. Stir thoroughly, making sure to scrape the bottom and the sides of the glass. There will be some left over cocoa floating on the surface the chocolate milk (don’t worry, this is supposed to happen), scrape it off.
