Hot Orange Chocolate

hot-chocolate.jpg

Oh my, this recipe is just too tempting 🙂
Found in a book literally called ‘Chocolate’ by Margaret Briggs. I assume that the milk used is cows milk but I may try it with almond or coconut milk instead. Maybe hot chocolate is a winter drink but I think we should enjoy chocolate at any time of the year 🙂
 
Ingredients for two people – in theory!
16fl.oz (450mls) of milk
4oz (110g) chocolate, chopped
2-3 orange peel strips (without the pith)
Half a teaspoon of instant coffee powder
Pinch of ground cinnamon

​

 

 


 

 

Method
1. Stir all the ingredients together over a low heat until the chocolate melts
2. Increase the heat and bring just to the boil, stirring often
3. Remove from heat and whisk until frothy.
4. Return to the heat and whisk again
5. Remove the orange peel and pour the chocolate into mugs.
Enjoy!

P.S. I'm a devoted fan of Oatly! I'm so fussy with tea, coffee and chocolate drinks but this really works for my stubborn taste-buds - and I've just realised it's cheaper than delivered cow's milk.. no-brainer for those of us striving to be dairy free :-)
