Rich Venetian Hot Chocolate ~ The Hot Chocolate Of Your Dreams
- 1 3.5 ounce bar of quality, dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces.
- 1 cup of coconut milk beverage or regular whole milk. If you like it even darker and richer, use 3/4 cup of milk.
- 1/4 teaspoon of cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons of water. (See notes)
- 1 teaspoon of my vanilla sugar or regular white sugar. How much sugar you add is a matter of personal preference.
- Put the chopped chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave until chocolate melts. Be careful not to burn it. Stop and stir it a few times as you melt it in the microwave. Put the coconut milk or regular milk and sugar in a pot. Heat it on medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer. Add some of the milk to the melted chocolate and whisk to combine. Add the melted chocolate to the pot with the rest of the milk along with the cornstarch and water solution. Simmer for 3-5 minutes, whisking the whole time. The more you cook it the thicker and creamier it will be. Sip and Enjoy!
