Has anyone tried to make a solid chocolate turkey?

Haven't tried it, but don't see why it wouldn't work. If the pan is well greased, and the chocolate is allowed enough time to harden, seems to me as if it would work. Sure will take a lot of chocolate, though!

The official Nordicware site says that this mold has a 10 cup capacity. There's also contact info on that site, which would allow you to ask them anything you like about using the pan. I've never actually called them, but I'm sure they'd be helpful!

I'm breaking tradition here for a fellow pizzelle enthusiast - Here's a recipe that Grandma Valery used and I use to this day - Usually not given out but here it is: 1-1/4 cup all purp. flour 1 stick butter ( if using salted butter omit salt called for in recipe) 3 large eggs 3/4 to 1 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt (see above) 1 teaspoon FRESH baking powder 1 to 2 teaspoons of your favorite flavoring - as w. Ewell pointed out, anise oil is FAR SUPERIOR to extract but be careful not to overdose - anise oil is powerful. Melt butter and let cool. Beat eggs untill golden, add sugar and whisk until smooth, add butter and whisk until completely blended. Add your flavoring and whisk to incorporate. Add flour, salt ( if using) and baking powder gradually whisking to incorporate. Follow instructions for your pizzelle maker (Hopefully a Palmer - they are only the BEST) Option - when adding the dry ingredients add a heavy 1/4 cup of the best cocoa you can lay your hands on - I prefer Hershey's Special Dark. Usually the chocolate pizzelles need a bit more time - With my Palmer I cook my Anise pizzelles for about 30 seconds to make them light colored ( Although they aren't as crisp as when you cook them until slightly browned - 40 to 45 sevconds) and I cook the chocolate pizzelles for about 45 seconds - They're incredible - crispy with chocolate flavor that sneaks up on you and are the perfect accompaniment to good coffee or ice cream. If you try the recipe and love it as I do thank Grandma Peppina in your nightly prayers. Enjoy! Home Geezer

Perhaps you can 'tent it' with heavy duty large aluminum foil. Actually that is the best way to roast turkey. Just fold the large piece of heavy duty aluminum foil in half, and gently place it over the top of the turkey...works great... Good luck!

Hi. I have not but I've made roasts and its a great heavy duty pan. Very pleased with it.

It burned slightly with the cheese but we think it is because we put in way too much cheese. We have not tried it with chocolate but I expect it would work well. We are happy with the purchase.

Yes...however, if I had to do it over again, I wouldn't buy this one. It did not heat up. I kept turning up the heat because turkey wasn't getting done.

I haven't, but I notice there's a recipe on the Meyenberg site using this: http://meyenberg.com/index.php?page=chevre

it's an excellent roaster but no it will not brown the turkey however I suppose you could cook it part way and then transfer into the oven for the last little bit to brown

Yes,I have done that. Also I have mixed chocolate and vanilla- it tastes kind of like the original Wendy's frosty.

So far I have not tried chocolate. But I can tell you white Queso cheese using buttermilk to thin it down works great!

Use parchment paper along with flour and butter (or chocolate powder and flour if making chocolate cake)

I like to use chocolate especially made for fountains. I order it from chocoley.com. It has a delicious rich flavor and is always a hit at parties.

Everyone has a different method of cooking a turkey. I am of the school of thought that believes if the outside of the bird is pretty and golden brown, the meat will be dry. After I put the turkey in the pan, I add a little water to the pan, enough to come up 1/4"-1/2" from the bottom of the pan. This keeps the bird moist and gives you lots of broth for gravy. I also put the lid on and bake it covered. Again, it keeps the meat moist. The skin won't be all pretty and picture perfect, but the meat will be juicy and taste wonderful. The reason why I bought this pan was because it's big enough to fit 2 small 12-13 pound turkeys in it (smaller birds don't dry out as much as big birds) and it has a lid.

Yes I have. I melted the cocoa butter and mixed with shea butter, coconut oil and other natural oils and made lotion.

I have never cooked a turkey in this but assume the direction that came with the rotisserie is sufficient enough for the turkey to turn out perfectly. I have never had anything I have cooked in it fail. It is all good. However, it would need to be a small turkey not over ten lbs. Carolyn Durr

Yes, I tried regular and double stuffed. I like the double stuffed better because, the chocolate was not as thick around the cookie

Hi Lisa, I would say "yes" if you don't over do it with the chocolate, and use a thin layer, on the bottem and the top.
