Making hot chocolate at home is easy.
It is necessary
- For 1 serving of chocolate:
- - 100-150 ml of milk,
- - 3-7 st. tablespoons of cocoa powder (the more cocoa, the thicker and more bitter the chocolate will turn out),
- - 3-5 tablespoons of sugar,
- -1 teaspoon of butter (optional).
Instructions
Step 1
Combine sugar and cocoa in a bowl, mix well.
Step 2
Add a third of the milk to the mixture of sugar and cocoa powder, stir again, continue to slowly pour in the milk and stir until an even consistency of liquid gruel. Next, pour in the remaining milk.
Step 3
We put the bowl on the stove and begin to heat the resulting mass over low heat, stirring constantly.
Gradually increase the temperature and continue heating until the chocolate mass begins to boil.
Important: Make sure that the chocolate does not burn at the bottom of the bowl. If this happens, then the temperature of the plate is too high.
Step 4
After the chocolate has begun to boil, remove the bowl of chocolate from the stove.
Step 5
Add a teaspoon of butter to the hot mass, if desired, mix well.
Step 6
The flavor of the chocolate will largely depend on the quality of the cocoa. Therefore, cocoa is not suitable for making milkshakes. It is better to use classic cocoa powder.
If the chocolate is thickened, it can be used as a fondant for cakes, donuts, or rolls.
