Introduction
Luxuriously thick hot chocolate with just a hint of vanilla and nutmeg is just the thing to warm you through on a cold winter’s day.
Ingredients
- 100g good quality dark chocolate, finely grated
- 4-6 tbsp icing sugar, sifted
- 3 tbsp hot chocolate mix
- 3 tbsp cocoa, sifted
- 2 tbsp powdered custard mix, sifted
- 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
Method
- 1. Combine all ingredients in a jar. Secure the lid and give the jar a good shake to mix everything well.
- 2. To make hot chocolate, use 2½ heaped tbsp hot chocolate mix for every 250ml milk.
- 3. Simply combine hot chocolate mix with milk in a saucepan and give a quick whisk to combine. Cook over medium heat until hot chocolate is steaming and has thickened, stirring constantly.
- 4. Serve immediately topped with marshmallows or a dollop of whipped cream.
- 5. Mix is enough for 1.5l milk, or 6 mugs of deliciousness. Will keep indefinitely in a tightly sealed jar in a cool place.
