Preparation
- Step 1
Cut the chocolate into small chunks. In a saucepan combine the milk and cocoa, and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, whisking until smooth. Stir in the sugar. Reduce the heat to very low, and stir in the chocolate a little at a time, until melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Step 2
Strain through a fine mesh strainer, and stir in the vanilla. Serve in mugs, with a little chocolate shaved over the top.

I think the measurements could be mis- typed. Perhaps too much cocoa powder? This was drinkable only when I doubled the milk and sugar. Even then, it was very bitter.
Rasputin couldn't stomach this.
Worked well. Made with two cup milk plus 2 tsp cocoa powder plus 1/2 cup Guittard chocolate shavings. Sweetened with two tsp coconut sugar. Delicious. Not sure why the reviews are bad.
@marie j the reviews are bad because this recipe calls for over 1 CUP of cocoa powder. I’m using your measurements instead.
Definitely has a mistake in the recipe - we couldn’t mix in enough milk to make it palatable.
