Chocolate Spread

Submitted by Studentchef

"This is another one of my mother's recipes. She got this one from a neighbour while she was still living in Israel. Since this is decadent and is not really for diabetics, we use this only on special occasions. Some of the measurements, though, are in grams, because that was the kind my mother used while she was growing up in Israel. I tried to get her to convert the measurements so what you see below is mainly a guess estimate, really."

Raw eggs? Sounds a bit scary.

Am I overlooking a step? Does eating this spread mean eating raw eggs? Have you missed the Nestle's cookie dough recall scare?

I use this recipe ALL the time. I adapt it with less sugar, more cocoa (and sometimes a pinch of chilli) for the grown ups. If you use soft brown sugar you also get a more "fudgy" chocolate spread. So versatile! Many, many thanks for this one. It's a keeper!!

This is really good stuff. It was hard to not just stand in the kitchen and eat it with a spoon. I made a batch of browines and frosted them with some of this, but there are many possible uses for this. I would highly recomend giving this a try.
