Not everyone is old enough or
unhealthy enough to care for my Grown Up Chocolate. This is my regular hot
chocolate recipe, which is sooo much better than instant one and doesn’t really
take that much more effort or money. This is an absolute hit with the kids, and
a nice mug of this stuff is just what they need coming back from school in the
winter.
Ingredients
(for 2)
1
and ½ cup of low fat milk
½
tablespoon unsweetened cocoa
1
cup milk chocolate chips
Put
the milk and the chocolate in a heavy saucepan and keep on medium heat stirring
continuously until the chocolate melts completely. Add the cocoa powder and
pour the mix into the mugs.
There
are two ways to serve this. The first one is with a generous amount whipped
cream on top, and a light dusting of cocoa on the cream itself. The second one
is with a candy cane in it, to give extra sweetness and a hint of mint: the hot
chocolate melts the sugar cane making a delicious caramel-like red and green slush
on top. Mmmh. Who said this is just for the kids?
