Celebrity chef Kunal Kapur has shared an easy homemade chocobar recipe that is quickly winning attention online among dessert lovers looking for simple summer treats.

Posting the recipe on Instagram, the MasterChef India judge described the chocobar as a nostalgic frozen dessert perfect for India’s scorching summer season.

“The weather is getting hotter than ever, and this homemade choco bar is exactly the kind of frozen treat you’ll want stocked in your freezer,” he wrote.

Five ingredients for a nostalgic summer dessert

Kunal Kapur’s recipe uses only five ingredients and requires minimal preparation, apart from freezing time.

Ingredients

• 1 cup chopped 55% dark chocolate
• 1 tbsp coconut oil
• ½ cup unsweetened whipping cream
• Few drops vanilla essence
• ¼ cup condensed milk

According to the chef, coconut oil helps create the glossy chocolate coating and gives the chocobar its signature crisp crack while biting into it.

How to prepare the chocobar

The recipe begins with melting dark chocolate and coconut oil together using a water bath method.

The melted chocolate is then spread inside small paper cups to form a thin shell before freezing for 30 minutes.

For the filling, whipping cream is beaten with vanilla essence until light and fluffy, followed by condensed milk for sweetness and texture.

The cream mixture is then filled into the frozen chocolate cups, covered with foil, and frozen again for several hours with ice cream sticks inserted in the centre.

Finally, the top is coated with melted chocolate before removing the paper cups to reveal the homemade chocobar.
