Baking Dark Chocolate

Can dark Chocolate candy bars be used as a substitute for baking chocolate?

I found several large bars in my freezer and have some cookie and candy recipes that call for semi sweet baking chocolate and would love to use these up as no one here will eat them as just candy bars. Any thoughts on this would be helpful.

No. The chocolate bars that are meant to be eaten out of hand have stabilizers and emulsifiers in them: they won’t produce what you’re trying to achieve with the “baking chocolate”……

If you read the ingredient list, you’ll see all sorts of things that PREVENT the chocolate bars from melting……..Baking chocolate is specifically formulated for just that: baking………Hope this helps……

Oh, and you know how when you bake chocolate chip cookies? The chocolate chips don’t really melt, but keep their shape? That’s the stabilizers in the chocolate chips, to keep them from melting……..

Sugar Free Lemon Meringue Pie Recipe?

Does anyone have a great recipe for Sugar Free Lemon Meringue pie? I’d love to bake one for someone but it never comes out right.
Or, a website that will send one for me in the USA?
Thanks!
Very helpful answers.

Sugar Free Lemon Meringue Pie

1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups Splenda sugar substitute
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups boiling water
4 eggs, separated
1/3 cup lemon juice, strained
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 9-inch baked pie shell
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup Splenda
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix cornstarch, flour, Splenda and salt in top of double boiler. Add boiling water, blend thoroughly. Cook over boiling water, stirring constantly until mixture is thick and clear.

Beat egg yolks and stir in a little of the hot mixture. Pour back into double boiler and cook 2 minutes longer, constantly stirring.

Remove from heat; slowly add lemon juice, butter and lemon rind. Mix well.

Pour into cooled pie shell. Let cool while preparing meringue.

Place egg whites from above in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Beat on high speed with an electric mixer using the whisk attachment until frothy. Add cornstarch, cream of tartar, Splenda and vanilla. Beat on high speed until slightly stiff peaks form.

Swirl over pie filling so as to touch edges of crust all around.

Bake in moderate (350 degrees) oven 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to cake rack to cool before cutting.

Hope this helps! =)

Baking Peach Cobbler From Scratch

February 25, 2011

baking peach cobbler from scratch
Is there a peach cobbler crock pot recipe that does not use buisquick or other all purpose baking mixes?

I searched recipes for peach cobbler made in a crock pot. All of them basically ask to use all purpose baking mix like buisquick. I do not like to use mixes. Any recipes that are more from scratch?

this is your lucky day, I googled this the other day – I made this last night and it came out exceptionally good! I adjusted it a little, I put some ground pecans (about 1/2 cup) in with the flour and also it took mine about 2 hours to cook completely.

Ingredients
1 (21 ounce) peaches w/syrup – you can use any pie filling also

1 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar, I use brown sugar but any sugar should be fine
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup milk, low-fat is fine
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions
Lightly grease the inside of a 31/2-quart(31/2 litre) crock pot, or spray it with cooking spray.

Place the pie filling into the crock pot.

Beat the remaining ingredients until the consistency of the batter is smooth.

If the batter is a little too moist after adding the vanilla, adjust the consistency with an extra sprinkling of flour.

Spread the batter over the pie filling.

Cover and cook on high for 11/2 to 2 hours, or until a skewer pierced into the centre of the cobbler comes out clean.

Serve with cream, custard or ice cream
