Can I make a chocolate cake using regular milk chocolate instead of cocoa?!


Question:

Can I make a chocolate cake using regular milk chocolate instead of cocoa?

I have all the igredients except the cocoa powder. I also don't have any cooking/baking chocolate so is it possible to use melted milk chocolate?


Answers:

That's a toughie-- you can melt down and cool the chocolate and add it with your wet ingredients, but the result will be VERY sweet. And yet, removing sugar from the recipe will result in a dry cake.

If you have semi-sweet chocolate chips, I'd melt down around 2 oz. of those instead of milk chocolate. It would cut down on the sweetness, and you can always add more chocolate if you need it.
