Ingredients

  • 2 cups of milk (tea)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 colheres (sopa) de chocolate em pó
  • 4 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 small box of cream

Preparation Method

  1. Prepare the Mixture:
  • In a blender, add the milk, cornstarch, cocoa powder and sugar. Blend well until all ingredients are completely mixed and the cornstarch is dissolved.
  1. Cooking the Chocolate:
  • Pour the mixture from the blender into a saucepan. Add the cinnamon stick and cook over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to boil and acquires a thicker texture. The cornstarch is responsible for giving the hot chocolate its creamy texture.
  1. Add the Cream:
  • When the mixture starts to boil and reaches the desired consistency, turn off the heat. Remove the cinnamon stick and add the cream to the pan. Stir well until the cream is fully incorporated, resulting in a smooth, creamy mixture.
  1. Serve:
  • Serve the hot chocolate while it’s still warm. You can serve it in mugs or cups and, if you like, you can garnish it with whipped cream, chocolate shavings or an extra pinch of cinnamon.

Additional Tips

  • For a Richer Hot Chocolate: If you want an even richer hot chocolate, you can replace some of the milk with whole milk or add some chopped semisweet chocolate during the preparation stage.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste. If you prefer a less sweet chocolate, you can reduce the amount of sugar or use a sugar substitute.
  • Customize with Toppings: Add toppings like marshmallows, whipped cream or sprinkles for an extra touch of indulgence.

Conclusion
