My notes
Tips
- Making a paste with hot water first dissolves the cocoa, so it does not taste dusty.
- Allulose keeps it softest. Where it is not sold, use a granulated sweetener that measures like sugar, let the tubpint stand for 10 minutes before spinning and plan on a Re-spin.
- Dutch-process cocoa gives a darker, smoother chocolate flavor.
Why it works
Cocoa adds solids and a little fat, and allulose keeps the base soft like sugar would. The hot-water paste dissolves the cocoa so it spins silky instead of chalky.
