Zubereitung von Strong Hot Chocolate
- In a 1-quart saucepan, combine 1 cup whole milk and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
- Split one vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the milk mixture. (Reserve the pod for step 5)
- Whisk in 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar. Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk constantly for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture is frothy and simmering gently.
- While the milk mixture simmers, place 4 ounces of high-quality dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher), finely chopped, in a heatproof bowl.
- Remove the vanilla bean pod from the milk mixture. Pour the hot milk mixture over the chopped chocolate.
- Add a pinch of sea salt (about 1/8 teaspoon) and whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Divide the hot chocolate among mugs. Top each serving with 2 marshmallows or a dollop of whipped cream.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
