The creamy hot chocolate in a cup is a real delight, especially in the winter season when cold and frost grip our minds and bodies, and being wrapped in this drink is a great pleasure! Some preparations I’ve read online and in various books involve using block dark chocolate, but I’ve always relied on these instructions myself; however, if you have a foolproof recipe, write it in the comments …
This simple and delicious recipe that I’ve made my own is taken from the famous Talisman of Happiness by the legendary Ada Boni, one of the first cookbooks aimed at ‘brides’ and housewives published in 1927.

Tips and notes
If you have some sugared cocoa powder in the pantry, I suggest clearly reducing the amount of sugar indicated in the recipe to avoid an overly sweet drink…
