Indulge in the decadent warmth of Italian hot chocolate complemented by the whimsical touch of floating meringue kisses. This rich and creamy beverage is perfect for cozy evenings and special occasions alike.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 egg whites
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- Pinch of cream of tartar
Instructions:
Put the milk in a saucepan and heat it over medium-low heat until it starts to simmer
Mix cocoa powder and 1/4 cup sugar together well in a different bowl
Slowly stir the cocoa mix into the milk that is simmering until the mixture is smooth
Mix in the vanilla extract and chocolate chips, stirring until the chocolate melts and the mixture gets thick
Add the cream of tartar and egg whites to a clean, dry bowl
Beat them together until soft peaks form
Slowly add 1/4 cup of sugar while beating until stiff peaks form
Hot chocolate should be served in mugs, and meringue should be put on top of each one
If you want, you can lightly toast the meringue with a kitchen torch before serving
