The best you can do is to keep it longer in the freezer (try at least 24 hours) and with some luck, you will get a very hard paste, similar to frozen butter (but not to frozen water).
It sounds like the mixture has been overheated. Its important to keep the heat very low (making sure the base of the bowl doesn't touch the hot water) and it should be smooth, glossy and the perfect consistency.
In terms of shelf life, an unopened bottle of chocolate syrup can last between 12 to 18 months. Once opened, it's advised to store it in a refrigerator, where it typically remains fresh for 6 to 12 months.
It's safe to store chocolate syrup in the pantry for two to three years. After it's opened, however, move the chocolate syrup to the refrigerator, where it should remain safe to consume for up to six months. Visible mold or separation or a rancid smell are all indicators of chocolate syrup that has spoiled.
Incorporating fat can help maintain the fluid texture of chocolate as it cools. Vegetable oil, coconut oil, or cocoa butter can be slowly stirred into melted chocolate. For every cup of chocolate, add about one tablespoon of oil until it reaches your desired consistency.
The syrup will be just fine at room temperature, though the second it's opened, you'll want to keep it cool. Once your syrup reaches the refrigerator, you'll want to keep your eye — and nose — on your bottle. Much like opened maple syrup that hasn't been refrigerated, opened chocolate sauce can spoil.
Chocolate typically takes about 20-30 minutes to fully harden and set at room temperature. By placing your melted chocolate in the fridge, you can cut these times in half, speeding up the hardening process.
Chocolate is very sensitive to heat and melts at just above body temperature. But if it gets too hot then it will turn grainy or lumpy and the fats will start to separate out. Sometimes this can be corrected by adding some cream or water.
Excessive heat can cause the chocolate's cocoa particles to cluster, resulting in a lumpy texture. You can prevent this clustering by not exposing your chocolate to direct heat, such as when you place it in a hot pan or microwave it for too long.
Because NESQUIK syrup does not have high fructose corn syrup, refrigerating it will cause crystallization. For optimum quality, we recommend storing NESQUIK syrup at room temperature.
The best way to check on your maple syrup is to smell it or take a small taste. If it smells good and tastes good, it is good! If there is mold on the surface or in the container, you can scrape it off or strain the syrup through a cheese cloth to remove all of the mold pieces.
If it remains unopened and stored at room temperature in its original packaging away from direct sunlight or heat sources, it can last up to a year while still safe to consume.
16 fluid ounces equals 2 cups. One cup is equal to 8 ounces. To find the number of cups that is equal to 16 ounces, divide 16 by 8. 16 divided by 8 equals 2.
