Salted Caramel Hot Cocoa Food

SALTED CARAMEL HOT COCOA

Steps:

• Pour the sugar into a heavy-bottomed saucepan that will comfortably fit the sugar with some headroom.
• Place over medium-low heat and stir gently with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula to keep the sugar heating evenly.
• As the sugar heats, it will turn from fine grains to white shardy pieces to golden shards to a melted amber puddle. Be patient!
• When the sugar is fully dissolved and a deep golden caramel, stir in the sea salt and take the pan off the heat.
• Pour the cream into the caramel in a thin, steady stream while stirring; the caramel will hiss, bubble and harden, so this is where it's crucial to have a pan with enough room to prevent boil-over.
• Return the pan to the stove over medium heat.
• Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring until the caramel is fully incorporated.
• Whisk in the cocoa powder.
• Continue to heat, stirring occasionally, until the cocoa is steaming.
• Serve immediately, with or without marshmallows.
