If you prefer sweeter chocolates to bitter ones, substituting these chips into your pains au chocolat will help to satiate that sweet tooth. Hershey’s chips were very candy-like (though no one expected any less), and was perhaps the sweetest of all the chocolate chips they tasted. They are also a perfect substitute for Trader Joe’s-brand semi-sweet chips if you do not have a Trader Joe’s in your area. The testers remarked that Ghirardelli’s chips were smooth, bright, fruity, and a bit sweeter compared to the other chocolate chips in their line-up. The best sweet (as in nearly milk-chocolate-flavored) chips to use are Ghirardelli’s and Hershey’s. You can use sweeter chocolate chips and still create delicious pains au chocolat, however. The latter brand is a bit sweeter and richer, so if you have the money to spare, either of these brands will be perfect to use in pain au chocolat. The former brand was named the favorite among all the testers at Serious Eats due to its ultra-smooth texture, shape, and the fact that it had a mature, fruity bitterness to it. Other, more expensive (but equally delicious) brands of semisweet chocolate chips include Scharffen Berger semi-sweet baking chunks and Barry Callebaut semi-sweet chocolate chips. Their relative bitterness also lends your sweets a gentle toffee flavor, which is an added bonus. ![]() Serious Eats tested 10 varieties of chocolate chips and found that, in terms of both price and flavor, Trader Joe’s semisweet chocolate chips were the best ones to use in baking. However, if you want to create a more authentic pain au chocolat, you should use the latter kind instead. They can come in both normal milk chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate varieties. While ‘baking chocolate’ is usually regarded as the very bottom-tier level in chocolate bars, this bar performs moderately well and tastes great plain as well as when baked into pastries.Ĭhocolate chips are another great alternative to use in pains au chocolat. ![]()
