chocolate modak recipeChocolate modak recipe an easy modak that you can try for this ganesh chaturthi. This chocolate modak is made with khoya,sugar and chocolate as main ingredients.

It tastes so delicious and am sure kids will love it yes mittu loved it so much.How can anything go wrong with chocolate?! Traditionally modak is made with rice flour and coconut jaggery or dal stuffing but this is a twist to your regular modak recipes.

I have given 2 versions one is the chocolate modak as such and other one with the outer covering.Actually I liked the one with outer covering more and mittu obviously loved the chocolate modak more šŸ™‚

I have used mould here but if you don’t have mould then you can check here for easy modak without mould check this post.Check out otherĀ Ganesh chaturthi recipes posted already.

For the outer covering:

  • 1/2 cup idiyappam flour
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • In a pan - add khoya and sugar.

  • The entire mixture will become goey as in the pic, keep stirring and cook in low flame.Add ghee.
  • The mixture will thicken and start to leave the sides of the pan.Keep stirring.
  • At one stage it will be less sticky and come together as a mass. You can even check by rolling a ball, it will be very hot so be careful.Set aside to cool down.After cooling down for 10-15mins the mixture will become thick as shown in the pic.
  • Grease the mould well with ghee.Take a small lemon sized ball and fill the modak mould.You can either push it from the bottom hole or stuff both the sides like this.
  • Close press well,remove the extras and carefully open and demould.Repeat the same with the remaining mixture and make chocolate modaks.You can serve the chocolate modaks as such or use the below method.

For making chocolate modak as stuffing:

  • Take flour in a mixing bowl - add salt to it.Mix well with a laddle.Boil water until it bubbles up,switch off then add it to rice flour.
  • Mix with a laddle,once it starts to come together,Set aside for few mins until it is warm enough to handle with hand.Now bring everything together to form a smooth dough without any cracks.
  • Grease your palms with oil first.Now take a lemon sized ball and flatten it in your palms, place stuffing bring the edges to the center and seal it to form modak shape.You can do using a mould too.Steam cook for 7-10 mins or until the modaks are cooked, you can see a shiny outer layer.

Notes

  • I made half and half of chocolate modaks and used the other half for stuffing.Actually I loved the stuffed one and mittu loved the chocolate modaks more.
  • This chocolate modak keeps well for 3-4 days if refrigerated.
  • Use good quality cooking chocolate and coco powder which is the main flavour for this chocolate modak.I have used choco chips here, you can even use bar cooking chocolate.
