Frothy Spiced Cocoa Food

FROTHY HOT WHITE CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Combine the milk, vanilla bean and vanilla seeds in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Remove the vanilla bean. Add the hot milk to the blender and carefully blend until frothy. Add the white chocolate to the blender and blend until the chocolate is melted. Divide between 2 mugs, top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with cocoa powder.

SIMPLE HOT COCOA FOR ONE

Steps:

• Whisk together the cocoa, sugar, salt, and about 2 tablespoons milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until cocoa and sugar are dissolved. Whisk in the rest of the milk and heat it over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until it is hot. Stir in the vanilla and serve.
• If you like it frothy, blend it in the blender.
• This recipe multiplies easily. When you get up to a quart of milk, use 1/4 teaspoon salt.

SPICED COCOA

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl, combine all ingredients.
• Mix well.
• Put in resealable container.
• To make cocoa, use 1-2 tablespoons mix per cup of hot milk.
• Serve hot or iced.

GINGER SPICED HOT COCOA

Steps:

• In a small saucepan heat the milk and ginger over a medium-low heat until scalding, about 4 minutes. While the milk is warming, put cocoa powder and sugar into a mug. Add the water to the mug and stir until the mixture has the consistency of a paste. Remove the ginger from the warmed milk. Add the chocolate mixture to the milk and whisk until slightly frothy. Pour the hot chocolate into the mug and top with chocolate shavings.

SPICED HOT COCOA

Steps:

• Sift all the ingredients for the Spiced Hot Cocoa mix into a large bowl. For each serving, stir 1⁄4 cup mix into 1 cup hot milk. Store the remaining mix in the jar.

FROTHY SPICED COCOA

Steps:

• Whisk 1 cup of the milk with the remaining ingredients in a bowl.
• Heat the rest of the milk in a heavy pot.
• When hot, but not boiling, whisk in the cocoa mixture.
• Bring to a boil, lower heat& simmer gently for 3 minutes.
• Let cool for 1 minute.
• Whisk (or froth with a cappucino frother) just before serving.
• Garnish with a cinnamon stick.

CREAMY AND FROTHY VEGAN HOT COCOA

Steps:

• You can make this two ways.
• One is by placing all the ingredients into a large saucepan and with an immersion blender, blend everything together for 3 minutes. We want to whip air into it, so it's important to do it for at least 3 minutes.
• If you don't happen to have an immersion blender, you can throw it all into a standing blender and do the same and then pour it into the saucepan. On Medium-high heat stir the cocoa until it almost comes to a boil. DO NOT boil the cocoa, it will change the consistency too much. Turn down to simmer and serve.

FABULOUSLY FROTHY HOT CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Pour about 200ml of milk into your microwave safe bowl. Put it in the microwave on high for 2 minutes.
• Get your favourite mug out. Fill it with the 3 teaspoons Milo & the sugar.
• Mix it together using a teaspoon.
• When milk has become warm, whisk it (using the whisk of course!) immediately. You should notice a frothy layer of milk forming at the top.
• Pour the hot milk (with exception of froth) directly into the mug from the bowl. All the milk that is not frothy should automatically pour into the cup.
• By this stage, you should have the milk froth left in your bowl. Before you do anything else, mix the Milo and hot milk together in the cup.
• Using a spoon, scoop out the froth from the bowl and layer it on top of your Milo Hot choccie. The amount of froth and how fluffy it turns out depends on how well you have whisked the hot milk.
• Now, sprinkle a little bit of extra Milo or cocoa powder on top of the froth, and let it sit for about a minute.
• Your hot chocolate is ready. Sip it. Spoon it. Lick it. Yum.
• ENJOY!
