Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (480 ml) lactose-free whole milk
  • 4 ounces (115 g) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, very finely chopped

Preparation:

  1. Bring the milk to a simmer in a saucepan, then remove from heat. Whisk in the chocolate then cover and let sit for a minute or two. Whisk again to help chocolate melt and incorporate with the milk. Whisk very well until blended and smooth.

  2. Cover and let sit for a few minutes; this rest allows it to thicken slightly. Divide into cups and serve immediately.

Notes:

If You Can Tolerate

  • Lactose: If you have passed the lactose challenge, feel free to use regular milk.
