Ingredients:
- 19 ounces (539 g) of dark chocolate, very finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups (360 ml) heavy cream; use lactose-free if available
- 2 teaspoons peppermint extract
- Peppermint oil
- Lactose-free whole milk as needed
Preparation:
-
Place finely chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Bring cream to a boil, then immediately remove from heat and pour over the chocolate. Allow to sit for 5 minutes; the heat from the cream will melt the chocolate. After 5 minutes, gently whisk until a smooth, whisking in peppermint extract or peppermint oil, drop by drop, to taste.
-
To make Mint Hot Chocolate, scoop about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate mixture into a mug, top with 6 ounces of milk, stir together well, and either microwave until hot - or you can of course do this stovetop in a pan or make a larger batch.
