Delicious hot chocolate
There is almost nothing better than a big mug of hot chocolate when it's cold and gray outside. And luckily it is both quick and easy to make.
For one person you need: 2 cups milk
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon pure cocoa powder
1 cup whipping cream
How to: Heat the milk in a saucepan for five minutes, or pour it into the cup and put it in the microwave (if you have one) for one minute. While the milk heats, whisk the cream you make it to the foam. Using a hand mixer or a whisk.
When the milk is hot, put you sugar and cocoa, stir with a spoon, put a dollop of whipped cream on top - and voila: Then there is the delicious hot cocoa.
It all went pretty fast, so why not try one of our tips for hot cocoa with a little extra flavor?
Tip 1: Cocoa with vanilla flavor Try to put a little sprinkle vanilla powder in the milk. It gives a nice, sweet taste.
Tip 2: Whipped cream with a hint Do you think the cream is a bit boring? So try to mix a little blob of jam in before you whip the cream. It tastes heavenly!
Tip 3: Cocoa with Santa taste is a little long to December, but if you already know to be in the Christmas spirit, try a sprinkle of cinnamon. Yum!
Tip 4: Avoid skin If you have made a lot cocoa, there may well get skins on. But you can easily avoid by pouring the whole shebang in a thermos as soon as it is finished.
Tip 5: Garnish top with possibly a sprinkle cocoa, a splash of chocolate sauce or some mini-marshmallows to make it extra inviting.
