About Baking chocolate, mexican, squares

Chocolate is a beloved confection made from the roasted, ground seeds of the cacao tree (Theobroma cacao), blended with sugar and, in most cases, extra cocoa butter and milk. The ground cacao becomes a smooth paste that is refined and conched into the silky bars and candies enjoyed worldwide. It comes in several main types: intense dark chocolate with a high proportion of cacao, sweeter and creamier milk chocolate, and white chocolate made from cocoa butter without the cocoa solids.

Chocolate, especially dark, contains antioxidant flavonoids along with iron, magnesium, and small amounts of caffeine, though it is also rich in sugar and fat. It is eaten on its own, baked into cakes, cookies, and brownies, melted for ganache and fondue, molded into truffles and bars, and stirred into hot chocolate. Its rich, complex flavor ranges from fruity to roasted depending on the beans. Choose a quality bar with cocoa listed first, and store chocolate in a cool, dry place away from strong odors to keep it smooth and glossy.
