Dark-As-Sin-Death-By-Hot-Chocolate

Recipe #308596 | 11 min | 3 min prep | add private note

I was fiddling in the kitchen, trying to come up with something like that chocolate drink that Starbucks discontinued a couple years ago and came up with this.....whoo dang, good! But, if you don't like dark, use a milk chocolate instead, and add more sugar to counter the cocoa.This drink is best served in about 1/3-1/2 cup quantities, and sipped little bits in between nibbles of fruit or pound cake.

SERVES 8 , 3 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces dark chocolate (I used 53% cacao dark chocolate from the baking section)
  • 1 pint whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa
  • 1/3-1/2 cup superfine sugar (You can use regular granulated, but superfine is amazing in the way that is dissolves and makes for )
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup milk

Directions

  1. 1
    Chop chocolate into fine pieces, set aside.
  2. 2
    In pan mix cream, cocoa powder, sugar and salt. and heat over med until just steaming, don't boil. Stir regularly.
  3. 3
    Add chopped chocolate pieces and stir until smooth. At first the mixture will look speckled, keep stirring until chocolate specks smooth out and color is even.
  4. 4
    If drink is too thick add milk until prefered texture is achieved.
  5. 5
    Garnish with cinnamon, whipped cream, chocolate shavings, etc as the mood takes you.
