French hot chocolate

This is so so so easy, and you can make it vegan so easily, It’s the perfect cosy treat.

Recipe, serves 1-2;

350 ml milk
Big splash double cream
1/2 heaped cup dark chocolate chips
Pinch salt

Whipped cream to serve

Method

1. Add your milk and cream to a saucepan on medium heat.

2. Stir, and when you start to see steam, add your chocolate chips.

3. Take off the heat whilst you stir through your chocolate, making sure it’s fully incorporated, and not stuck to the bottom of the pan.

4. Put the pan back over the heat, turn it to medium-low - you want the hot chocolate to get really thick now.

5. Leave the hot chocolate to thicken, but stir every minute or so.
   If it starts to stick to the pan, remove from the heat, then turn the heat to low.

6. Once your hot chocolate is the consistency of double cream, add to your serving glasses/ mug, sprinkle with some salt, and top with your whipped cream
   * for the whipped cream, I just whipped about 1/4 cup of double cream with a whisk, until it was thick and airy.

Notes + Variations:

You can use milk or white chocolate for this instead, and sub all the ingredients out to make it vegan.
