How to Make Almond Milk Hot Chocolate Martha Stewart
- In a small saucepan, combine 2 cups unsweetened almond milk and 1 cinnamon stick. Heat over medium heat until the milk is steaming and just about to boil.
- Reduce heat to low and gently simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the cinnamon to infuse the milk.
- Remove the cinnamon stick. Add 2 ounces of dark chocolate (finely chopped), 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (or honey), and a pinch of sea salt to the saucepan.
- Stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Pour into mugs and enjoy immediately. Garnish with extra cinnamon, mini marshmallows, or whipped cream, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
