Brownie Batter Cocoa

Thick enough to coat a spoon, which is the whole point.

HotChocolateWinter

You will need

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 tbsp Dutch process cocoa
  • 1.5 oz dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla
  • Pinch flaky salt

Make it

  1. Warm the milk until it steams. Do not let it boil.
  2. Whisk in the cocoa and brown sugar until there are no lumps left.
  3. Off the heat, add the chopped chocolate and whisk until glossy.
  4. Stir in vanilla, top with whipped cream and finish with flaky salt.
Make it grown-up

Add 1 oz bourbon. Bourbon and dark cocoa share the same caramel notes, so it reads as richer rather than boozier.
