Try and resist this Italian Hot Chocolate!
Why this is the best hot chocolate, you will taste. This recipe is for you if you’re a purist hot chocolate lover. No gimmicks or additives, just a pure chocolate indulgence.
When making hot chocolate, there aren’t many ingredients; therefore, buying the best is essential. Starting with the milk, buy a whole cream farm fresh milk that tastes like milk. Don’t even try with low fat.
I like to use 70% Belgian high-grade cooking chocolate or something similar with the chocolate. You can use a chocolate block that you cut into small pieces or buy ready-made pellets. If making for children, they may prefer a lesser percentage. But for the adult purist, 70% is perfect, don’t go higher, or it can get a little bitter.
The cocoa powder is equally important, so choose well when purchasing. The Italian hot chocolate is usually thicker; it’s thickened using cornstarch or cornflour.
The cream on top is optional but worth having! Marshmallows are also good, especially for kids.
