Prep Time: 8 minutes
Cook Time: Not applicable
Total Time: 8 minutes (excluding chill time)
Ingredients:
- 18 oz chocolate chips
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 large eggs
Instructions:
-
Melt the Chocolate: Begin by placing the chocolate chips into a heatproof bowl. Over a low heat, gently melt the chocolate, stirring frequently to ensure an even consistency and to prevent any burning. Be patient as the chocolate slowly transforms into a smooth, glossy liquid.
-
Cool the Chocolate: Once the chocolate is melted and silky, remove the bowl from the heat. Allow the chocolate to cool slightly. This step is crucial as adding other ingredients to hot chocolate can affect the texture and final result of your Frangos.
-
Combine Ingredients: With the cooled chocolate ready, incorporate the remaining ingredientsโsoftened butter, powdered sugar, and eggs. Beat the mixture vigorously until it is well combined and smooth. The eggs should be fully integrated, and the texture should be rich and creamy.
-
Pour into Dish: Prepare a buttered dish or pan of your choice. Pour the chocolate mixture into the dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure uniform thickness. This step ensures that each piece of Frango will have a consistent texture and taste.
-
Chill the Mixture: Place the dish in the refrigerator and allow the Frangos to chill until they are firm enough to slice. The mixture should be set but still soft enough to cut into pieces. This cooling process allows the flavors to meld and the texture to become perfectly sliceable.
-
Cut and Serve: Once the Frangos have set, remove them from the refrigerator. Cut them into small, bite-sized pieces. These delightful treats are now ready to be enjoyed or wrapped as gifts.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve these decadent Frangos as a special treat with coffee or tea, or package them beautifully as a thoughtful gift for any occasion. Their rich flavor and melt-in-the-mouth texture make them a perfect indulgence for yourself or a cherished gift for others.
