Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup instant espresso powder
1 tablespoon vanilla
6 cups milk
2 cups half-and-half

Steps:

  • In a large heavy saucepan combine the cocoa powder, the sugar, the espresso powder, the vanilla, a pinch of salt, and 1 cup cold water and heat the mixture over low heat, whisking, until the cocoa powder is dissolved and the mixture is a smooth paste. Gradually add the milk and the half-and-half, both scalded, and heat the mixture over moderately low heat, whisking, until it is hot, but do not let it boil. (For frothy hot chocolate, in a blender blend the mixture in batches until it is frothy.)

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A chocolate with a cocoa content of 70% or higher is ideal.
  • If you don't have cocoa powder, you can use 1/2 cup of melted unsweetened chocolate in its place.
  • To make a vegan version of this hot chocolate, use almond milk or soy milk instead of regular milk.
  • For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of chocolate syrup or a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Top your hot chocolate with whipped cream, marshmallows, or chocolate shavings for a special treat.
