步骤说明

1. 1

   In a small Saucepan, whisk together the Unsweetened Cocoa Powder, Sugar, Salt, and 2 tablespoons of ![hot water] over ^[medium-low heat]. Stir constantly for about 1 minute until the mixture forms a smooth, glossy paste. This step "blooms" the Cocoa Powder and prevents lumps.

2. 2

   Pour in the Milk (and Heavy Cream if using), whisking continuously to fully incorporate the Cocoa Powder paste into the liquid. Increase heat to ^[medium].

3. 3

   Heat the mixture, stirring frequently, until it is steaming and just beginning to simmer around the edges — about 5 to 6 minutes. Do not let it come to a full boil, which can cause the Milk to scorch or develop a skin.

4. 4

   If using chopped Semi-Sweet Chocolate, remove the Saucepan from the heat and add it now. Whisk until completely melted and the Cocoa Powder is velvety smooth.

5. 5

   Stir in the Pure Vanilla Extract. Taste and adjust sweetness — add another teaspoon of Sugar if you prefer it sweeter.

6. 6

   Pour into two mugs and top with Marshmallows, Whipped Cream, or a light dusting of Cocoa Powder or cinnamon. Serve immediately.
