Classic Hot Chocolate

Ingredients

  • quality chocolate with a high cacao percentage
  • milk
  • powdered milk and fine corn starch (add to taste)

Directions: 

If you prefer a thicker hot chocolate, you will need both powdered milk and corn starch, but not necessarily. Milk should reach a boil twice. First bring milk to a boil and add chocolate, and then bring it to a boil once again. Pour hot chocolate in a mug and decorate with homemade or readymade whipped cream and grated chocolate.

Chili Hot Chocolate

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons powdered milk
  • 1 scoop chilli powder
  • 4 tablespoons fine corn starch
  • 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 4 tablespoons cacao powder
  • 100 g dark chocolate
  • pinch of ground cinnamon
  • tiny pinch of fine sea salt

Directions:

Cut the chocolate into small pieces, add all the ingredients in a jar and shake well. Meanwhile, heat two cups of milk (3 dl). Transfer a little bit of milk to a cup, and then put three large tablespoons of the jar mix in hot milk. When the milk reaches a boil, add the milk you previously set aside and stir to prevent lumps forming. Switch off the hot plate and let the mixture simmer a little, but be very careful or else it will burn. When the mixture thickens enough, remove it from the hot plate and pour into cups.
