The
Malted Hot Chocolate
Matt Lewis of Chocolate Bar –
New York City, NY
Adapted by StarChefs
Yield: 2 – 3 Servings
Ingredients:
- 3 ounces good quality bittersweet chocolate,
chopped into small pieces
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup skim milk
- 1½ Tablespoons malted milk powder
- Fresh whipped cream and crushed malted milk
balls, for garnish (optional)
Method:
Place chopped chocolate in a small heatproof bowl. Bring water to
boil and pour over chocolate pieces, making sure all the chocolate
pieces are submerged. Set aside for about 3 minutes. While waiting
for chocolate to melt, place cream and skim milk in a medium saucepan
and bring mixture to a simmer. Stir in the malted milk powder.
Whisk chocolate and water mixture until
smooth, then pour immediately into milk and cream mixture. Whisking
constantly, bring mixture just to a boil. Divide hot chocolate among
mugs and top with whip cream. Sprinkle a dash of crushed malted
milk balls over the whip cream and serve immediately.
