Description
A dry chocolate mix for approximately twelve eight-ounce hot-milk mugs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Instant nonfat dry milk powder
- 4 ounces Finely chopped semisweet chocolate
- 1/4 teaspoon Fine salt
- 8 fluid ounces Whole milk, per serving
Instructions
- Sift 1 cup confectioners' sugar and 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa into a completely dry bowl. Whisk in 1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder and 1/4 tsp fine salt. Chop 4 oz semisweet chocolate very finely and whisk it throughout.
- Transfer the dry mixture to a clean, dry airtight jar. Label the ingredient list including milk and the preparation instruction. Do not put liquid milk in the jar. Measure actual total volume in the kitchen trial; twelve generous 1/4-cup scoops are provisional.
- For one serving, heat 8 fluid oz whole milk in a saucepan until steaming, not boiling. Whisk approximately 1/4 cup of the mix into a small amount of hot milk first, then add the rest and continue whisking gently until all chopped chocolate has melted and no dry cocoa lumps remain.
- Pour into one mug. Repeat per serving with separately measured milk and mix; the five-minute heating estimate applies to one mug, not a twelve-mug pot. Check the actual sweetness, dispersibility and yield with a trial.
Notes
Recipe-development draft; not kitchen-tested. Timing and yield are estimates. Nutrition has not been calculated.
Untested estimate to prepare mix and one mug; heating all twelve mugs at once takes longer. Actual dry-mix volume and dissolving need measuring.
