Hot chocolate is a warm and creamy drink made with dark chocolate, milk, sugar, and cocoa. It is a very popular beverage in Italy during the winter months, perfect for warming up and indulging in front of the fireplace. Its origin dates back to the Aztec Empire period, where cocoa was considered a precious and sacred drink. Today, hot chocolate is loved by both adults and children and can be enriched with whipped cream, cinnamon, or liqueurs to make it even more delicious.
Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan, gradually adding the milk, and bring to a boil.
Cook for another 10 minutes to thicken the chocolate.
Serve with whipped cream, a dusting of cocoa, and cinnamon if desired.
