nutella hot chocolate

Wanting to make hot chocolate on a-cold-and-ohsomiserable-Melbourne-rainy-day, this came to mind.

How? Honestly, I have no idea. But the words chocolate and Nutella freak of nature come to mind.








Nutella Hot Chocolate

4 cups low fat/skim milk
2 tablespoons Nutella , a chocolate hazelnut spread (or any hazelnut cacao spread)
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons natural sweetener of choice/raw sugar

Optional Toppings:

Marshmallows
Crushed hazelnuts
Chocolate chips
Extra Nutella

Instructions

1 . Heat milk in a medium sized saucepan on medium - high heat until beginning to warm and steam. Add the spread, cocoa powder and sugar, and whisk until dissolved and combined. Bring to a gentle simmer while stirring, and take off heat.
2. Serve with your desired toppings.

Hot chocolate, with marshmallow in a distinctive way

This hot chocolate is not just exciting. It will make your body relax after a hard day's work
I love how it turned out. The hot chocolate was completely creamy and sweet. Graham's crumbs met the chipping of my lips with a sweet surprise at each sip. Delicious delicious make it perfectly. If you prefer to mix hot chocolate, simply skip the hot cocoa portion and add your favorite mix to the mug. The Graham edge nuts and delicious chocolates are what really distinguishes this recipe. I hope you like it as much as we did!







Ingredients

2 cups milk, any kind (dairy-free for vegan)
1 cup water (or use 3 c milk)
¼ cup cocoa powder
2 Tbsp light chocolate syrup
2 Tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp non-bitter stevia (or add 1-2 Tbsp more sugar to taste)
pinch salt
graham crackers, crushed (for lining rim - gluten-free for GF eaters)
½ cup marshmallows (ensure vegan-friendliness)

Instructions

1 . Preheat oven to low broil and move oven rack to the second from the top (high enough up to broil your marshmallows). Place baking sheet on rack.
2 . Heat milk and water in a saucepan over medium heat until warmed through - about 5 minutes. Be careful not to overheat or scald.
3 . Add cocoa powder, chocolate syrup, sugar, stevia and salt and whisk vigorously until thoroughly combined.
4 . Meanwhile, take a few marshmallows and rub them around the top of your mugs so the graham crackers will stick. Then, dip mug in graham cracker crumbs until well lined. You could also add some graham cracker crumbs to the bottom of your mug for extra graham flavor.
5 . Pour in hot chocolate and top with 1/4 cup marshmallows each. Carefully set mugs on the baking sheet in the oven and broil marshmallows until browned, watching carefully as to not let them burn.
6 . Carefully remove from the oven with a towel and serve with holders or a small towel to protect hand from heat (they should cool quickly for handling). Top with a drizzle of chocolate syrup and extra graham cracker crumbs for serving (optional).


Notes

Adjust flavors before serving, adding more chocolate or sugar if you prefer. 
Also, you could add a shot of Kahlua or Bailey's to make it a boozy hot chocolate.
