How to Make Thick And Chocolatey Hot Chocolate
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until completely combined and no lumps remain.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of milk to create a smooth paste. Then, whisk in the remaining 2 cups of milk.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture comes to a gentle boil and thickens. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Reduce heat as needed to prevent scorching.
- Remove from heat and divide the hot chocolate evenly among four mugs.
- Top each mug with a splash of cold milk to adjust the consistency and create a beautiful contrast.
- (Optional) Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite liqueur (e.g., Baileys, Kahlua, or rum) per mug for an adult version.
