ABSTRACT:
Chocolate-flavored morsels essentially free of fat and a method for their preparation are provided. The morsels are manufactured by first preparing a mixture comprised of a major amount by weight of an aqueous syrup comprised of a crystallizable saccharide, said aqueous syrup being supersaturated with respect to said crystallizable saccharide, a minor amount by weight of defatted cocoa powder, a minor amount by weight of said crystallizable saccharide in crystalline form, and a minor amount by weight of an instant starch having a cold-water solubility of greater than 50 weight percent (and preferably a fat content of less than 0.25 weight percent), the amount of water in said aqueous syrup being insufficient to dissolve a major portion of said minor amount of instant starch. The morsels are then prepared by dividing said mixture into separate portions and forming said portions into discrete morsels in an environment which allows crystallizable saccharide to crystallize from said syrup onto said crystallizable saccharide in crystalline form. The chocolate-flavored morsels can be used in baked goods, particularly in cookies, to provide a chocolate-flavored morsel as a flavoring ingredient without adding fat to the baked good.
