How to Make Luscious Hot Chocolate

  1. Combine 1 cup of milk and 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until the mixture begins to bubble gently.
  3. Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer, whisking constantly, until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Increase the heat to medium-low and bring the hot chocolate to a gentle simmer, whisking constantly for another minute. This ensures a perfectly smooth texture.
  5. Remove from heat and pour into your favorite mug. Enjoy immediately!
