Welcome to We Should Cocoa – a chocolate challenge. This is a monthly cooking event for food bloggers based on …. you guessed it ….. chocolate! Over the last few months, the idea has been slowly brewing in the heads of myself (Choclette) and Chele of Chocolate Teapot fame and has now come to fruition.
The idea is to make something with chocolate each month. You can use any sort of chocolate or cocoa substance and use any ingredient that you like. But you must include the special ingredient or ingredients selected by the host. It can be sweet or savoury, simple or complicated; be as creative as you like. You can use anyone’s recipe (acknowledging the source of course) or make up your own.
Chele and I will take it in turns to host the challenge and select the special ingredient.
What to do?
1. Post your recipe on your blog – accompanying photographs would be nice.
2. Mention “We Should Cocoa” in your post and link back to both Chocolate Teapot and Chocolate Log Blog. You will find who is hosting each month’s challenge by looking on this page.
3. E-mail us the link to your submission (one only per challenge please) and include: your name, the name of your blog, your recipe title and a photograph (please can you make these no bigger than 800 x 600 pixels) to: weshouldcocoa@yahoo.co.uk
4. Entries should be submitted no later than midnight of the 25th of the month.
5. The round up of entries will be posted on the relevant host’s blog on or before the last day of the month.
6. The new challenge will be posted on the 1st of the month.
7. If mentioning on Twitter you can use the tag #weshouldcocoa and I will endeavour to retweet.
