Homemade Chocolate Chips Recipe

Love nibbling on those tiny chocolate chips you get in classic and delicious chocolate chip cookies? No more rushing to the market and buying them anymore. Now, you can make these crunchy chocolate chips at home with this super easy recipe. 

Do you ever wonder in the middle of eating a chocolate chip cookie that how these yummy chips are made? If you do, then you must know that they are really easy and quick to make. 

Although I’m a fan of big chunks of chocolate in my cookies or dry cakes. I simply chop the chocolate bar into chunks and use it in my recipes. But many of you love those tiny droplets of chocolate chips. To make these chips at home, all you need is one ingredient – compound chocolate! 

Well, using compound chocolate is the easiest way to make the chips. They don’t require any tempering unlike couverture chocolate nor they need any sweetener as the chocolate is already sweet. So. Let’s check out how you can make these chocolate chip cookies!

Why You’ll Love This Recipe? 

  • Easy: There can be nothing easier than making small chocolate chip cookies. All you need to do is melt chocolate, transfer it to a piping bag, and pipe drops of chocolate on a sheet of butter paper. Anyone can do this; you don’t have to be a perfect baker for this!! 
  • Quick: Since we are making the chips using compound chocolate, it makes the process very quick. No time needed for tempering and it sets fast at room temperature. So, whenever you run out of the chips while making a recipe, you can make them super quick at home. 
  • Can Be Used For Any Dessert: Chocolate chips can be used in various recipes such as cookies, travel cakes, for layering cakes, or as garnish for many desserts. Making them at home will ease the work of running out to the market and buying them whenever you need them. 

Important Ingredients Used In The Recipe

There is only one single ingredient being used in the recipe, which is the compound chocolate. 

  • Compound Chocolate: It is an alternate chocolate to couverture chocolate, which is made using vegetable oil instead of cocoa butter. This makes the chocolate much more affordable, accessible, and easy to work with. I have used dark compound chocolate for the recipe today. 

How To Make Homemade Chocolate Chips

Preparation: Take 100 g of chocolate and roughly chop it into small chunks. Line a baking tray with butter paper or a silicone mat.

Melt chocolate: Transfer the chopped chocolate to a bowl and melt it using a microwave. Heat the chocolate in intervals and stir it well after every interval. This will ensure the chocolate doesn’t get burnt. 

Transfer For Piping: Once the chocolate is melted, transfer it to a disposable piping bag. You don’t need any nozzle for this. 

Pipe: Cut the tip off the piping bag and start piping tiny dollops or drops on the butter paper. Lift the piping bag towards the end to get a sharp tip. 

Set: Let the chips set at room temperature. For this you will have to work in a cold AC room, otherwise the chocolate will flow too much in a hot room.

Serve: Once the chips are set completely, scrape them from the butter paper using a metal Scraper and use them as you wish. 

Chef’s Tips For The Recipe

Chocolate Temperature 

Do not pipe too hot chocolate. When the chocolate is hot, it is much more fluid; you won’t be able to make drops properly as they would spread. After melting the chocolate, wait for it to cool down a little. 

Tip For Melting

Ensure that there are no tiny bits of chocolate left. If the chocolate isn’t melted correctly, the tiny particles get stuck during the piping, and you won’t get good-shaped drops. 

Tip For Setting

If you are not able to work in a cold room, you can put the tray in the refrigerator for a few minutes for the chips to set. Try to work as fast as possible. 

How To Store Homemade Chocolate Chips?

Simply store the chips in an airtight box and keep it at room temperature (in a cool, dry place). If it is too warm/hot at your place, then you can refrigerate it. They can be consumed for up to a month.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Can I make chocolate chips for milk and white chocolate as well? 

Definitely, you can. Follow the same method to make chocolate chips of milk and white compound. 

Can I make chocolate chips using couverture chocolate? 

You can use couverture chocolate to make the chips. However, you will have to temper the chocolate first and then use it to pipe. Without tempering, the chocolate won’t set properly.

“I achieved 10% of my short-term manifestation before my target date”
Before this program I knew a little about manifestations, but as I discovered during the program, I had a lot of limiting beliefs that kept me from fully embracing and accepting myself as a manifestor.
During this program I became more aware of what manifestation is and how powerful I am. I become more aware of my guides, of my highest self and that I can pull the best of my highest self into my present. Since this program I no longer wrestle with trying to convince myself that what I desire will happen. I know that it has happened, it is done and it is mine, here and now. I achieved 10% of my short-term manifestation before my target date, my eyesight has improved and I no longer need glasses for distance vision, only for reading, I gave myself a make-over as part of my commitment to my renewal and I began to de-clutter my space.

“My professional and personal life has seen significant positive changes”
Joining “The Art of Manifesting” was a life-changing decision for me. This is now the third time going through the quest and focusing on different areas of manifestation.
Regan is a powerful guide and she walks the talk.
This 28-day journey was a blend of practical techniques and profound energetical activations. I learned to visualize my goals clearly, expand my possibilities, and overcome the limitations holding me back from living a life i desire. The quest’s unique approach to identity hacking helped me align my inner self with my aspirations, making the manifestation process more effective and authentic.
The biggest takeaway for me was the acceleration of manifestation by bending time and tapping into the highest frequencies. The techniques taught in the quest enabled me to see results much faster than I expected. My professional and personal life has seen significant positive changes, and goals that once seemed unattainable are now within reach.
I’m beyond grateful for the wisdom and tools I’ve gained from this quest and Regan. It’s not just about manifesting; it’s about transforming your entire lifestyle. I highly recommend “The Art of Manifesting” to anyone looking to turn their dreams into reality.

“This course and listening to Regan’s podcasts gave me the tools to acknowledge my blocks and mindsets around drinking”
I have so enjoyed this journey with Regan, I am a new person as a result of this quest. I now have new beliefs & mindsets that I keep working on daily, hourly. A kinder and more compassionate version of me has emerged over this journey, and I love her!
This quest has resulted in me finding the lost me, the me that has been hidden under the voices of doubt, fear or just lack of awareness that I get to run my life not the other voices in my head or family and people around me. When we wire ourselves to the future version of us, then we make different choices and we are already a different person!
Thank you Regan, thank you Mindvalley, thank you tribe!!!! ❤❤, I love you all and wish you a magical Christmas and hope our paths may cross one day at Mindvalley events.

“My family’s net income unexpectedly increased while I was taking the quest”
Before taking this Quest I believed that the prerequisites of success were hard work, long hours, timing and a degree of luck; “1% inspiration and 99% perspiration” was my mantra. Trying to achieve success with this mindset was exhausting, frustrating and unsustainable.

 

I then discovered The Art of Manifesting … and was blown away.

 

The foundational teaching of focusing on your inner world to achieve has been transformative in the way I live my life. I now know that cultivating the feeling of already being in possession of that which you want, accelerates the manifestation of what you desire.

 

My family’s net income unexpectedly increased while I was taking the quest, and have discovered a path to manifest greater abundance in the year to come. But perhaps the biggest shift I experienced during this quest now knowing that I am worthy and deserving of abundance. Regan, I am eternally grateful to you, thank you :-)

“Now, my manifestation is showing up right before my eyes in ways I hadn’t even considered”
Before this program, I believed somewhat in manifestation but never knew how to do it, or if it was real, and the little bit I did know ended up being completely wrong! This Quest has not only taught me how to manifest and put me on the path to doing it the right way, but I was actually able to manifest what I had set at the beginning.
I never thought it would actually come true, but I committed myself to the process and gave it 100% every day. And now, my manifestation is showing up right before my eyes in ways I hadn’t even considered. It’s truly blowing my mind.
I had a financial goal for the end of the Quest, and different opportunities for selling my artwork started coming up, and the deals are coming out almost to the exact number I had set.
Not only that, but I have truly transformed into a better version of myself in these short weeks, more than I had in the last few years, that my spouse has even noticed.
I’m so excited for what’s to come next and so grateful for this program. Thank you.

“I have written a 50,000-word book, that is now in design”
I joined Mindvalley on New Year’s 2023. I am excited to share how life has significantly changed in the first 90 days of the year. Beginning with the Silva Method, I envisioned and transformed a dysfunctional personal relationship, into a loving, caring separation, allowing me the peace and serenity to follow my path, and my partner to choose his. In February while on the Art of Manifesting Quest I listed my intent to have a book written by May 2023, and have a speaking engagement booked by December 2023.
I have written a 50,000-word book, that is now in design, and a journal for Women seeking a deeper connection with themselves, also in design. Both will be uploaded via KDP Amazon self-publishing by May 1st.
I have booked a speaking engagement for May with the intent of having published books with me for sale.
Most importantly – this morning I changed my profile from ‘Document writer’ to ‘Author.’
Gratitude abounds!!!
