If you’re one of those people who loves hot chocolate with every fiber of your being, this article is for you. That’s because most people opt for the “easy” option when making this tasty warm beverage, and it’s really unnecessary. If you just put in a tad more effort, you can get rid of those hot cocoa packets and instead, make hot cocoa a much better way. Here’s how to do it.
Buy Dark Chocolate
The first thing to do is to go to the store and buy your favorite brand of dark chocolate. Even if you’re more of a milk chocolate person, don’t worry because you’ll be adding milk later. Bring the dark chocolate home and break it all up into many little pieces.
Heat Up the Milk
The next thing you’ll want to do is to boil milk in a small pot over a medium flame. Once the milk starts to boil, you can begin to add the pieces of dark chocolate. Stir continuously as you go, ensuring that there are no chocolate clumps. The more you stir, the browner the milk will get.
Finishing It Up
Eventually, all of the dark chocolate pieces will have melted into the milk, and you’ll have a rich, creamy concoction that’ll look just as delicious as it’s going to eventually taste. Pour it carefully into your mug and enjoy!
