On cold winter evenings, there’s hardly anything better than a hot cup of cocoa. It warms your body from the inside and soothes your soul. A cup of this hot chocolate not only brings warmth but also pure coziness. It’s the perfect choice to relax after a long, cold day or to simply indulge in a sweet treat. With just a few ingredients, you can create a creamy, chocolatey delight that’s guaranteed to captivate you.

The unique aspect of this hot chocolate is its intensity. It comes from using dark chocolate, which blends with whole milk to create a luxurious drink. The result is a deep and rich chocolate flavor that harmonizes perfectly with the mild sweetness of the milk. For an even more refined taste, you can experiment with a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla extract. Both ingredients add a special spice and depth that make the drinking experience even more enjoyable.

The preparation is wonderfully simple and quick. The base is 500 ml of whole milk or plant-based milk, depending on your preference. 100 g of dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa content forms the foundation of the intense flavor. For those who prefer it a bit sweeter, you can optionally add a teaspoon of sugar. However, the dark chocolate already provides a pleasant sweetness, so you can adjust the amount to suit your taste.
