    I’ve seen recipes, which are basically just cocoa butter and cocoa powder, and they seem pretty simple, though I’ve never tried them.

    Most chocolate “making” just starts with chocolate callets. Melt them, temper it, put it in moulds, and add filling. I’ve done this, and it’s not that difficult. Of course, the quality here depends on the quality of the callets, so if you start with Hershey’s (not sure if they even make callets), it’ll still taste like vomit.
