Step 1

Pour 4 cups of milk into a pot. Let it simmer on low heat while stirring it continuously to avoid burning. Once the milk becomes hot, add ¼ cup of cocoa powder and 3 tbsp of powdered sugar.

Step 2

Stir well. Now add 1 tsp vanilla extract and ⅛ tsp salt into the milk. Take 200 grams of semi-sweet chocolate and chop it roughly into small pieces so that it easily dilutes in the milk.

Step 3

Add the chopped chocolate to the milk and mix well. Whisk it vigorously so that chocolate properly dissolves in the milk. Let the milk simmer for a few minutes while stirring continuously.

Step 4

Turn off the heat. Transfer the milk into a mug. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and serve hot.
