Description
This velvety smooth Red Velvet Hot Chocolate is topped with sweetened whipped cream and chocolate to make a satisfying, rich beverage for this Valentine’s Day!
Ingredients
- FOR THE HOT CHOCOLATE:
- 3 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar (add More To Taste)
- 2 ounces, weight Liquid Red Food Colouring, More Or Less As Desired
- FOR THE TOPPING:
- ½ cups Heavy Cream
- 2 teaspoons Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 Tablespoon Dark Chocolate Chips
- Sprinkles, To Decorate (optional)
Preparation
Place cocoa powder into a medium sized saucepan and then pour the milk in gradually whilst whisking. Turn the heat onto low-medium and continue whisking until you have no lumps of cocoa powder. Add in the vanilla extract, sugar (check sweetness and adjust to taste) and red food colouring, whisking whilst you add.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, whisking occasionally to stop a skin forming. Do not boil. If it’s not red enough, add more food colouring, stir and then take off the heat.
Divide between two mugs and leave to one side whilst you make the topping.
Place cream, sugar and vanilla into a small bowl and whisk until thick and it holds its shape. This will take about 3 minutes.
Top each hot chocolate with the cream mixture, sprinkle chocolate chips and sprinkles (if using) on top and serve.
