Oh Hot Chocolat


Drinking hot chocolate every morning is now my new obsession. It all started when I watched the movie Chocolat (2000) of Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp a couple of weeks ago. That movie  really inspired me to try make a hot chocolate. Why not, I love chocolate by all means.  So lo and behold  moi went to a store to get cocoa powder (black&greens organic cocoa powder), rice milk and condensed milk to make my own version of hot chocolate. I decided not to copy the way how in the movie Chocolat did.  Because number one I don't know where to find Mayan chocolate in our neighborhood. Two, I don't like spicy. Three, I don't like too sweet for my drinks. I make strong hot chocolate just like espresso instead. I want simple yet strong hot chocolate. My measurements did get a good result because my hot chocolate taste sooooo good.  Love it!

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of rice milk or whole milk
1/2 cup of boiling water
2 teaspoon of bittersweet cocoa powder
1 teaspoon of condensed milk

To prepare:

1. Whisk the cocoa powder with boiling water until the powder dissolves. Sit aside.

2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add rice milk or whole milk until bubbles appear around the edge.

3. Reduce heat to low; add chocolate and condensed milk whisking occasionally until chocolate and condensed milk dissolves.

4. Turn off heat.  Serve in small cups and sprinkle a small bit of ground cinnamon.
