The Best Hot Chocolate
- 1 pint milk
- 2 tablespoons the best hot chocolate powder
- A handful of marshmallows
- Firstly, put a pan of milk on to the heat.
- Bring to a simmer, not a boil, and while it's heating, put a tablespoon of chocolate powder into each mug.
- Add a little warmish milk from the pan to each mug, you just need enough to dissolve the chocolate powder.
- At this point, plonk a few marshmallows into each mug.
- When the milk is at a simmer, carefully pour it into a plastic jug or flask.
- I normally do this over a sink as I always end up spilling a bit (the trick is to have a big enough jug or flask so the milk only half fills it: you need the extra space for shaking and frothing).
- Screw the lid on tightly, place a cloth over the lid for safety, and shake hard for a minute.
- Remove the lid, minding the steam, and pour into your mugs.
- A little stir and you can slurp your way to heaven!
