Coffee-Flavored Hot Chocolate Mix, the recipe to make at home the ultimate winter comfort drink in this coffee-flavored version.
If you love homemade gifts, this recipe is definitely for you.
The recipe itself is very simple, and the choice of ingredients will surely make a difference.
For this preparation, I recommend a 70% dark chocolate, and naturally, the cocoa should also be of excellent quality: you will definitely notice the difference!
Since potato starch is included as a thickener, this mix is naturally gluten-free! The only precaution during cooking is to bring the milk to a boil and let it cook well for a few minutes to ensure the chocolate thickens properly.
The last tip before I leave you to the recipe is about storage: prefer a glass container as it absorbs less odors compared to the plastic equivalent.
At the bottom of the recipe in the FAQ section, I answered some questions regarding this mix. If you have any other doubts or curiosities, leave a comment or use the appropriate contact form.
