Hot Chocolate Recipes The Secrets of Making Hot Chocolate like a Professional Anybody can make a cup of hot cocoa, but did you know that everyone can also make a delicious rich cup of hot chocolate? The terms Hot Cocoa and Hot Chocolate are often used interchangeably, but technically they are as different as Milk Chocolate and bittersweet chocolate. Hot cocoa is made from cocoa powder, which is chocolate pressed free of all its richness, meaning the fat of cocoa butter. Hot chocolate is made from chocolate bars melted into cream. It is a rich decadent drink.Read more on the Hot Chocolate History page. All chocolate is not created equal. When shopping for your chocolate look at the label to find the percent of cocoa butter the chocolate contains. The cocoa butter is where all the flavor and texture is. The higher the percent of cocoa butter, the better the chocolate. The cooking or baking chocolate is usually found in a block or bar that are then shaved or chopped for use in cooking. Do not use Milk Chocolate as it is not suitable for use in making hot chocolate recipes.Please visit the Chocolate Glossary for more information on types of chocolate. Sugar: Another important element in the perfect cup of hot chocolate is the sugar. It is used for sweetening, adding volume, and texture to drinking chocolates. Although Granulated White Sugar (table sugar) is most commonly used for cooking, you will find that using the following sugars can add a new life to your drink:Confectioner’s or Powdered Sugar: Melts fast and leaves no grain.Brown Sugar: Adds butterscotch flavor.Sucanat: Adds caramel flavor. Muscovado Sugar: Adds depth to chocolate. Time to Rest: After you make your hot chocolate, take a break and let it cool down before drinking. If you are a patient soul or a good planner, let it rest overnight. When the mixture cools down, the chocolate crystallizes and binds with the other ingredients resulting in a soft silky texture.After it cools, reheat in a pan on a stovetop stirring often or in a microwave 30 seconds at a time stirring between each session until it reaches the desired temperature. Frothing: To add texture and fullness mix vigorously with a wire whisk to produce a mass of small bubbles. The more air you can incorporate into the drink the frothier it will be.Tip: To reduce the calorie and fat of my drink, I like to have a nice layer of foam on top of my hot chocolate. I then use a non-fat or 1% milk and forego the whip cream and still enjoy a full texture when sipping my chocolate concoction.Remember you can use an immersion blender or the steamer on an espresso machine to build a foamy bed of sweet bubbles. If you are a traditionalist, try using a Spanish Molinillo, a wooden hand churn used to build the froth (see photo on right). Whipped Cream: Basic Whipped Cream Recipe - Here is your chance to top your hot chocolate with a touch of heaven.
