Chocolate Kalakand

Chocolate Kalakand sweet is an amazingly delicious recipe. Very easy to prepare at home by using just a few main ingredients. Prepared using grated soft paneer and cooked in milk with dark chocolate. Creamy, slightly chewy, and gooey textured. I personally love these and I am sure kids are going to love these because of the chocolate flavor. If you are a Kakakand fan then this won’t be ignored I am sure:) Well, this could be also prepared using soft chenna prepared at home simply by curdling the milk. I am preparing this with freshly grated paneer and then cooking it thoroughly with milk, sugar, and pure dark chocolate until it could be shaped like sweets. Just for the tip, you may also enjoy these when slightly milky and soft instead of cooking these until they could be shaped. Let’s quickly check out the super easy recipe.

Directions to prepare Chocolate Kalakand

Into a saucepan heat up full-fat milk. Cook the milk in slow flame by occasionally stirring it until reduces a little bit. It took around 20 minutes to reduce the milk. Then add finely grated paneer into it and mix. Keeping the flame at low keep mixing, stirring, and cooking this for a few minutes. You will see the paneer slightly gets softened. At this point add sugar and finely grated 90 % dark chocolate cocoa bar and mix. Mix and cook in low flame until the mixture starts to thicken. Once you see thick bubbles start to appear make sure to continuously stir and cook to avoid burning at the bottom of the pan. At the end add milk powder and cook until done. Once you reach the consistency when this mixture could be shaped, turn off the flame and immediately transfer it into a greased mold. Allow it to cool completely and refrigerate for an hour to set. Take it out and cut it into desired pieces and enjoy this chewy and gooey dessert/sweet

Step by step method along with the images shown below

Cooking of the milk

Take 3 cups of full fat milk into a sauce pan.

Stir and cook in low flame for around 20 minutes or until the milk reduced a little bit.

As you see in the image below that the milk has been reduced a little bit now at this point add the finely grated fresh paneer 3 cups

Finely grated paneer added

Add finely grated paneer 3 cups into the milk

Gently by mixing and stirring cook these for 7 minutes approximately

Then add dark unsweetened chocolate cocoa bar. I have used pure and 90% dark chocolate 🍫 bar. Choose any of your favorite brand chocolate. Finely grate this bar and keep aside for later use.

After cooking for around 7 minutes when you see that the paneer gas softened add sugar

Sugar added

Add sugar 1 cup

Finely grated chocolate is being added 🍫

Immediately add finely grated unsweetened chocolate bar 1/2 cup into it.

Close look

Mix it nicely

Continuously stir and cook these keeping the flame at low to avoid burning or sticking at the bottom of the sauce pan.

In between add a pinch of salt to balance the flavor

Gradually the mixture starts to thicken and thick bubbles starts to form.

Stir and cook until it reaches the point when it could be shaped easily.

Gradually more and more thicker bubbles starts to appear and the mixture gets darker in color.

Adding milk powder

At this point add 1/3 cup of milk powder. Now this is completely optional. If you like the texture to be slightly liquid and sticky then you may skip this step. I have added this to reach a consistency easily that could give a proper shape to the sweets once done and also there is no harm in adding some milk powder as it’s a different form of milk only so it would not alter the taste at all 🙂

Milk powder is being added and then mixed well.

Continue cooking in low flame until done.

As you see clearly in the image that the texture has changed now and we need to transfer these immediately into a mold.

Closer look

Grease a mold with some butter all around

And transfer the mixture immediately

Level it up using a spoon

Let it cool completely and refrigerate to set

Take out from the refrigerator. Cut into desired pieces.

Shape these up a little bit and enjoy

These looks perfect. Gooey and chewy chocolate Kalakand is ready and these are simply delicious 🤤

Notes

Notes: Points to remember
  • The continuous cooking and stirring method works best for this recipe
  • Cooking in low flame is important for this recipe to avoid burning
  • Adding the grated chocolate towards the end is better. Add sugar and chocolate in the midway of the cooking works best as these melt quickly and we do not need to cook the chocolate for too long.
  • For best texture and taste prefer using full-fat cream milk
  • You may skip using milk powder if you don’t want to shape them perfectly. Skipping milk powder does not alter the taste and flavor at all 🙂
