FAQs on Chocolate Modak Recipe
1. Can I make Chocolate Modaks without mould?
Yes, just take a portion of the mixture while it's still warm, roll it into a small ball, and then gently press down on the base to create a modak-like shape. You can also shape it into a peda or any other shape you like.
2. Why did my Chocolate Modak turn hard?
Overcooking the mixture can turn your Chocolate Modak hard. Ensure you cook cocoa powder and condensed milk on medium heat, stirring continuously until smooth. Adding a touch of ghee can also prevent excessive hardening.
3. Why is the Chocolate Modak not holding its shape?
If your Chocolate Modak isn't holding its shape, it may require further cooking. To fix this, continue cooking the mixture for a few extra minutes, then test it by rolling a small amount into a ball. If it holds its shape, the mixture is prepared and ready for moulding.
4. How to store it?
You can store Chocolate Modaks in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two. For longer shelf life, refrigerate them in an airtight container.
5. How long do I need to chill the Chocolate Modaks before serving?
Allow the Chocolate Modaks to cool at room temperature for a few hours or refrigerate them for about 30-60 minutes to set properly.
