The Steaming Cup

Heavy cream makes a rich cup of cocoa

Downright decadent. This hot chocolate recipe calls for heavy cream and whole milk. No need for spices or other flavours when you have real chocolate and cream. This isn’t a recipe for anyone watching their diet. You could always use 2% milk if you want to cut the fat down a little.

• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 5 oz semisweet chocolate

In a saucepan, simmer together milk, cream and sugar. Don’t let the cream mixture come to a boil. Chop chocolate, and stir into hot cream. Stir until melted and mixed.
