When I need a chocolate experience, I'll put together what I'm told is an Italian-style hot cocoa. I initially saw the recipe in the middle of an article in The New Yorker, which went something like this. (Sorry that I don't know the by-weight equivalents.) Mix 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/3 cup white sugar 1 teaspoon cornstarch with 1/4 cup water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Once this mixture comes to a boil, add 2 cups of liquid (water, brewed coffee, skim milk; the author recommended a cup of water and skim milk each) and stir over heat until heated through and mixed. This produces a thick, quite rich brew, not for children, but highly chocolate-concentrated. Clearly, it’s pretty much just empty calories, but not that much of them, and the fat is only what comes in your cocoa. Plain Text Version of This Recipe for Printing or Saving | |
