Italy is famous for their Cioccolato Caldo, especially during the fall and winter months. This hot chocolate is sometimes served so thick (like a pudding), that you need a spoon to actually eat it! this recipe doesn't make it that thick. The luxurious richness comes from using top-quality chocolate. Ingredients:
5 tablespoons dutch-processed cocoa powder |
2 tablespoons sugar |
6 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped (at least 70% cacao solids) |
2 cups milk |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan over low heat, add the cocoa powder, sugar, and 2 tablespoons of the milk,
2. Heat until the sugar melts and no lumps remain, stirring well.
3. Bring to a low boil, stirring constantly; add the remaining milk.
4. Turn off the heat, add the chopped chocolate, stirring until smooth.
