Tips:

  • Don't overheat the chocolate. If the chocolate is too hot, it will seize up and become grainy.
  • Stir the chocolate constantly while it is melting. This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Add the milk and cream slowly. This will help to prevent the chocolate from curdling.
  • Use a candy thermometer to make sure the chocolate reaches the correct temperature. The ideal temperature for hot chocolate is between 160 and 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add your favorite toppings. Whipped cream, marshmallows, and chocolate shavings are all popular choices.
