CLASSIC HOT CHOCOLATE

This is a dark, rich and classic hot cocoa that's perfect for any snowy afternoon. Nondairy milk can be substituted for whole milk here, though you might have to reduce the sugar, since some brands are sweetened. Also bear in mind that the higher the cocoa percentage of the chocolate you use, the less sweet the drink will be. Add the sugar gradually, tasting as you go: Hot cocoa sweetness is a very personal thing.

Steps:

  • Fill a small pot with 1/3 cup water and bring to a boil. Whisk in cocoa; it may clump, which is O.K.
  • Reduce heat to medium and whisk in milk, whisking around the sides of the pan to help dissolve all the cocoa.
  • When milk simmers, whisk in the chocolate, 1 tablespoon sugar and a tiny pinch of salt, and reduce heat to low. Whisk until chocolate is melted and very smooth. Taste and add more sugar if you like. Turn off heat and whisk in vanilla.
  • Serve topped with whipped cream or marshmallows.

Steps:

  • Off the heat, in a 1-quart saucepan, combine the milk and cream. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and use the tip of your knife to scrape the seeds into the saucepan, then add the scraped pod.
  • Whisk the cocoa powder and brown sugar into the milk, then place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk for 5 to 7 minutes, or until frothy and simmering.
  • Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Remove and discard the vanilla pod from the milk mixture, then pour the mixture over the chocolate. Add the salt and whisk until the chocolate is smooth.
  • Divide the hot chocolate among cups and top each with 2 marshmallows or a dollop of whipped cream. Can be cooled, tightly covered and refrigerated up to 3 days.
