Recipe Notes
- Chopping and stirring is the key to making the perfect blend of mouth-watering hot chocolate.
- Make sure the chocolate is finely chopped and stirred or it might end up sticking to the bottom.
- Choose your milk wisely. Hot chocolates taste the best when made in smooth and creamy full-fat milk. However, if you're looking to make it less creamy and healthier, you can use nut- milk.
