Ingredients:

250ml milk of your choice

1-2 tbsp soft light brown sugar
25g dark or plain chocolate, finely chopped, plus a grating to serve
1 tbsp whipped cream or squirty cream

Method:

STEP 1: Heat the milk, cocoa, sugar and chocolate in a small pan over a medium heat until steaming and the chocolate has melted. Whisk to dissolve the cocoa.

STEP 2: Pour into a mug, then add the cream to float on top. Grate over a little more chocolate to serve.

STEP 3: Enjoy!

Why not try adding something extra?

Marshmallows

The lightness and creaminess created by melting marshmallows balances the thickness and richness of the chocolate perfectly.

Liqueurs

Liqueurs are a favourite for adults! Bailey's is a popular one but there's also Cointreau, Kahlúa and Campari.

Chilli Powder

Typically made with bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, unsweetened cocoa powder, cinnamon, and a touch of chili powder.
