How to Make Hot Chocolate Concentrate From America's Test Kitchen
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, whisk together 2 cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually whisk in 4 cups whole milk until completely smooth.
- Microwave on high for 2 minutes, stirring halfway through. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring until the mixture is completely smooth and melted. Watch carefully to prevent scorching.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the chocolate to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Once firm, scoop the chocolate mixture into 1-inch balls using a cookie scoop or spoon.
- Wrap each ball individually in plastic wrap, then place them in a zip-top freezer bag. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- To serve: Place 3 scoops of chocolate concentrate into a mug. Add 1 cup of your favorite milk (dairy or non-dairy).
- Microwave for approximately 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until heated through and melted.
- Garnish with whipped cream, marshmallows, or your favorite toppings and enjoy!
