I know there are threads and posts on hot chocolate but unfortunately the search bar doesn't pick up words of fewer than four letters. So a search gives me lots of posts containg the word chocolate but it's hard to find the ones about the drink, not the bar, so I started a new thread on it.
I have friends coming over this weekend and I challenged their children (8-13) for a cold swim outside, and promised I'd take care of the hot chocolate for warming up again.
I love hot chocolate, and I haven't had one in over 7 years, and I don't want to miss out this time!
My idea was to heat cream and water and pour it over 85% chocolate. Has anyone tried this and does it work? Any issues with the mixture separating?
I can bring sugar for the children to sweeten it a bit more if they want to, I expect it will be sweet enough for me as it is.
No sweeteners, I absolutely hate the taste of them.
Any tips welcome!
