Hot Chocolate Recipe

1-3/4 ounce dark chocolate (70-100% cocoa butter), grated
8 ounces milk
Sugar to taste

Heat milk in a saucepan. Just before the milk starts to boil, add the grated chocolate and stir until the chocolate dissolves and the drink has slightly thickened. Do NOT let boil.

Stir in sugar to taste, depending on how sweet your chocolate was. Spoon in a tablespoon of double cream if you wish, and serve.

Additions: If desired, add any of the following to your hot chocolate:
  • ground cinnamon
  • nutmeg
  • chili powder
  • lavender
  • Arabic spice
  • caramel flavor
  • cardamom.
