Equipment

  • Food press or potato ricer
  • Blender or food processor
  • Small bowl
  • Small glass container with a lid

Ingredients

  • Cacao nibs

Instructions

  • Place enough cocoa nibs in your food press or potato ricer.
  • With a bowl underneath the press or ricer, start squeezing the tool's handle to crash the nibs and separate the solid from the liquid components.
  • Transfer your pressed nibs to your blender or food processor and pulse for two to four minutes until you have a powder.
  • Transfer the powder to your container.
  • Repeat the steps until you turn all your cocoa nibs into cocoa powder.
  • Keep the liquid component or use it as your butter or fat ingredient in your recipe.

Notes

If you haven't used all your homemade cocoa powder, make sure that you seal the container tightly and store it in a cool, dry place. It has a shelf life of up to 12 months.
