Year after year following Valentine’s Day, we have more chocolate than we know what to do with. After a few days, we get sick of chocolate and it ends up sitting on our counter for a few weeks before we have to throw it away. Instead of forgetting about the chocolate, you can repurpose it to make some amazing dishes. Here are five uses for your Valentine’s Day chocolate.
Cookies
Probably the easiest way to use chocolate is in cookies. Just substitute the chocolate chips for chopped chocolate and your cookies will be even more delicious.
Brownies
Brownies are another super simple way to use up chocolate. Chop up your favorite chocolates and add them to the batter for a tasty addition to a classic.
Milkshakes
Go ahead and get your go-to ice cream, chop up some chocolate, add milk, and throw it all in the blender for the most epic milkshake.
Popcorn
Turn your ordinary popcorn into a gourmet one by melting leftover chocolate in a microwave or over a double boiler and drizzling in on top of popcorn. Add some nuts for even more deliciousness.
Hot Chocolate
Step up your hot chocolate game by heating up milk in a mug and throwing in a few pieces of chocolate. We promise this will the best hot cocoa you’ve had in a while!
