Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 disks Ibarra chocolate tablet
- 4 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Granulated sugar (optional, to taste)
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- Cinnamon sticks (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, pour the 4 cups of whole milk and place it over medium heat.
Break the 2 disks of Ibarra chocolate into smaller pieces and add them to the saucepan.
Add 0.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon to the milk and chocolate mixture for an extra layer of flavor.
Stir continuously with a wooden spoon or whisk to help the chocolate dissolve and prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Keep stirring gently until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture begins to steam, but do not allow it to come to a boil.
Once the chocolate is melted and the drink is smooth, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and stir well. Taste for sweetness and add 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar if desired, stirring until dissolved.
Using a molinillo (traditional wooden whisk) or regular whisk, froth the hot chocolate by rolling the handle between your palms or whisking vigorously until you see a layer of foam.
Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully pour the hot chocolate into mugs.
For a luxurious touch, top each serving with whipped cream and garnish with a cinnamon stick, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your Ibarra Hot Chocolate with your loved ones.
