World Cuisine Recipe » Mexican-Style Hot Chocolate

Warm and creamy; simple chocolate flavors with a hint of cinnamon.

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups cold water
• ½ cup white sugar
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 6 cups whole milk
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Cooking Directions

1. Whisk cold water, sugar, cocoa powder, flour, cinnamon, cloves, and salt in a saucepan until smooth. Place over low heat; bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened and hot, about 4 minutes. Stir in milk; heat until hot chocolate just forms bubbles around the edge. Mix vanilla extract into hot chocolate. Blend until smooth with an immersion blender to make the drink slightly frothy.
