directions

  • For frothy hot chocolate: Bring the milk just to a boil.
  • Put the chocolate in a blender and pour in the hot milk.
  • Let sit for 10 to 15 seconds so the chocolate begins to melt and then cover securely, place a folded towel over the lid, and blend until completely mixed and frothy, about 30 seconds.
  • For unfrothy hot chocolate: Heat the milk in a saucepan until it just begins to boil.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, add the chocolate, and stir or whisk until well blended.

  1. I also used semisweet chocolate. This was excellent. Hot chocolate the old-fashioned way. Rich, lovely chocolate flavor and heart-warming. Thanks for a blast from the past.
     
  2. I made the frothy version and it was so good! I used semisweet chocolate for this.
     
  3. We made this delicious frothy version Christmas morning. What a lovely treat and so incredibly easy. This will not be the last time this is made for this family. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
     
  4. We used semisweet chocolate and made the frothy version. Very good on a cold, rainy day. I might also try using mint chips like another reviewer did. Sounds good too! Made for PARTY holiday event 2009.
     
  5. Very nice hot chocolate and simple to make. I made the unfrothy version however I used 1/2 bitter sweet chocolate and 1/2 mint chocolate chips as that is what I had in the pantry. This will be a nice recipe to keep on hand for when the kids come in from playing in the snow :) Thanks Kimke for sharing your recipe.

I live in Omaha NE and am an audiologist at Boys Town National Research Hospital. I love to cook, as does my husband Michael. In the summer, we have a large garden and try to use alot of fresh fruits/veggies in our cooking. We have a 5 year old daughter, Kate and almost 2 year old son Sam and enjoy introducing them to new foods. One of their favorites is fresh pesto smeared on crackers!
