Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 4 oz High-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), chopped
- 2 tbsp Cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0 Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- 0 Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the whole milk and heavy cream. Heat the mixture until it is warm but not boiling, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Add the chopped dark chocolate to the saucepan. Stir constantly until the chocolate has completely melted and is incorporated into the milk mixture.
Step 3
Sift the cocoa powder into the saucepan to avoid lumps and whisk it thoroughly into the mixture.
Step 4
Add the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Continue to whisk over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Adjust the sweetness to taste if necessary.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and let the hot chocolate simmer gently for 3–5 minutes, whisking occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld. Be careful not to let it boil.
Step 6
Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
