Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp chai spice mix
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or finely chopped chocolate

Method
 

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, add in the milk, cocoa powder and chai spice mix, and warm it until steaming. Do not let this mixture come to a boil.
  2. Add in the chocolate. With a heat-resistant spatula or a wooden spoon, stir constantly to avoid burning the chocolate.
  3. Cool to desired serving temperature. Serve in a mug topped with your favourite toppings.

Notes

Optional: whipped cream, mini marshmallows, cocoa powder (for dusting)
 
Tip: replace 125ml of whole milk with heavy cream for an ultra-rich and creamy hot chocolate.
