Directions
- 1
Combine the cocoa powder, sugar, oil, water, margarine and salt in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan. Stir together before setting over low heat.
- 2
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula, until the mixture thickens and turns glossy, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- 3
Remove from heat and add all the grissini at once. Stir gently but steadily to coat every stick evenly with the chocolate glaze.
- 4
Keep stirring off the heat until the mixture cools down completely — the sticks will naturally separate from each other as the coating sets.
💡 Chef's Tip
Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the pan for a richer depth of flavour. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
