My mom has a similar recipe. I still go back to powdered stuff, but it's my mom's homemade powered stuff, which is almost as good. I haven't had premade hot cocoa powder since I was seven.
Is it important that the chocolate is chopped up? I just tried this recipe, and I don't know why.. but the chocolate left the whole thing kind of.. gritty? It was like some parts of the chocolate just wouldn't melt or something. Help please?
@Theatriics Make sure it is pure chocolate, some chocolate contains stabilizers which might not dissolve. Chocolate should contain cocoa solids/nibs/liquor, cocoa butter, sugar (sometimes vanilla and milk powder) but that should be it! lecithin or other fats or oils shouldn't be there. also no starches or stabilizers. Also, if you heat it up too much you can burn the chocolate and it will get grainy like that.
Aw, crap. I can't make this with the espresso powder; I'm intolerant to caffeine in coffee. Only in coffee, though, not in anything else. I know, it's weird.
:) i love adding just a pinch of cinnamon in my hot chocolate...ur recipe is very similar to mine....except i use cinnamon instead of instant expresso...
This isn't just hot chocolate. It's gourmet hot chocolate o.o Haha, I always thought hot chocolate was just cocoa, milk, and sugar, but apparently that's a blasphemous thought to regular hot chocolate drinkers.
wow I've seen all your videos! Just clicked on a random one and every time i watch a new one, or just one of your old videos, i always say your introduction with you! "Hi guys, I'm Laura Vitale....." :D memorized!
@123cantpickaname She's said that if you want to contact her, your best bet is twitter so I'd recommend that. Unfortunately, I don't think you're going to get a reply this way.
My friend and I made a "Laure vitale day " and from the morning till the evening we made you food , Breakfast : your pancakes with the raspberry creamcheese frosting from the vanilla cupcake recipe, lunch: chicken Parmesan ( dessert : canolies) and dinner : homemade reviolii and for our movie night we made that hot coco and it's AMAZING !
I'm new to you, Laura. I just wanna say thank you for sharing your recipes. I made one of your dishes yesterday & my hubby thought it was delicious!! The ingreds that are needed for most of your recipes are affordable & a lot of them are already in the kitchen. Now I have to go back to the store & buy chocolate for this one :)
Oh are you in Chicago? Just curious cause I'm from Chicago & there's a bunch of great Italian resturants back home. I think the food is better back home in general.
I make my own homemade French vanilla hot cocoa mix and it tastes wonderful! This one tastes amazing too! I compared them both today, because where I live (Texas) it rained so I made both. DELICIOUS!
Fuck, coffee and tea, I'm a hot chocolate girl.
