How to Make Nun's Revenge

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of half-and-half and 1 teaspoon of arrowroot powder until completely smooth and lump-free.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of half-and-half and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
  3. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to simmer gently around the edges.
  4. Remove from heat and immediately whisk in the arrowroot mixture. Continue whisking until the hot chocolate slightly thickens (about 30 seconds).
  5. Remove from heat and whisk in 2 ounces (56g) of finely chopped dark chocolate until melted and fully incorporated, creating a smooth and luscious texture.
  6. Divide the hot chocolate evenly among two cappuccino cups or four espresso cups.
  7. Garnish each cup with a thin strip of fresh orange zest and serve immediately to enjoy the ultimate chocolate indulgence.
