Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 4 tablespoons Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 10 pieces Ice cubes
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the cocoa powder, sweetened condensed milk, and about 1/4 cup of the whole milk. Whisk until the cocoa dissolves completely and the mixture is smooth.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the remaining whole milk, granulated sugar (if using), and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. You can speed up the cooling by placing the saucepan in a bowl of ice water and stirring occasionally.
Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes. Pour the cooled chocolate mixture evenly into the glasses over the ice.
Garnish with chocolate shavings or a light dusting of cocoa powder for an extra touch of elegance.
Stir gently before drinking and enjoy your refreshing Brazilian Iced Chocolate!
