How to Make Spanish Hot Chocolate
- Chop or grate 4 ounces of high-quality dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher). Solid bars melt more evenly when chopped or grated.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the chopped chocolate, 2 cups of whole milk (or your preferred milk), and 1/4 cup granulated sugar.
- Place the saucepan over low heat. Whisk gently and continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and the sugar is fully dissolved.
- Continue whisking until the hot chocolate is smooth, steamy, and slightly thickened (about 2-3 minutes). Be careful not to scorch the bottom.
- Pour into mugs and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon and a mini marshmallow (optional).
