Comment préparer Barefoot Contessa's Hot Chocolate
- In a medium saucepan, heat 2 cups whole milk and 1 cup heavy cream over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the mixture is steaming but not yet boiling (around 175°F/80°C).
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add 4 ounces of high-quality dark chocolate (Valrhona or Callebaut recommended), chopped, and 2 ounces of high-quality milk chocolate (Valrhona or Callebaut recommended), chopped. Let it sit for a minute to allow the chocolate to begin melting.
- Gently whisk the mixture until both chocolates are completely melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon strong brewed espresso (optional). Whisk vigorously until well combined.
- If desired, gently reheat the hot chocolate over low heat for a few seconds, stirring constantly, to warm it through. Do not boil.
- Serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of vanilla bean powder or a cinnamon stick.
