    stove top hot chocolate

    I always make microwave single serving hot chocolate for me, as it is easy to prepare and quick too.

    Never tried stove top hot chocolate. I got request from a reader friend for stove top recipe. I have tried this way for quite a few times since then and turns out perfect, rich and lip smacking.

    You cannot mix everything and make a perfect cup of hot chocolate, few careful steps will make sure you get proper tasting hot cocoa.

    I always loved my version of hot chocolate though I have tasted in Coffee bean and Marriot Pune.

    It could be because of my sweet tooth. Yes, I need extra sweet hot chocolate.

    The recipe I followed from the container of the coco powder was perfect for me. Happy Valentines Day everyone, spread love 💟😍

    Step by step

    1. In a heavy bottomed vessel mix coco powder, sugar, salt with ¼ cup hot water.

    2. Heat in medium flame until the sugar melts and the mixture starts to boil. It takes roughly 2 mins.

    3. While the flame is in low or medium, add milk and heat for just a minute or two.  Add vanilla essence. 

    Do not boil after adding milk, just continue heating until the milk gets hot.

    Enjoy hot, it can be accompanied with any cookie or wafers. If you don't mind gelatine, you can garnish with a marshmallow.
