chocolate liquor
Ground cocoa mass
Chocolate liquor is the smooth, liquid paste produced when cacao nibs are ground.
Despite the name, it contains no alcohol—liquor here refers to the liquid state.
It solidifies when cooled and forms the base for all chocolate products.
Also called cocoa mass or cacao paste.
The recipe calls for two ounces of unsweetened chocolate liquor.
