Instructions to make Hot Chocolate:
- In a sauce pot over medium heat, add in cinnamon stick. - - Lightly toast until aromatic. - - Add in chocolate, cocoa powder, sugar, cayenne and a splash of milk.
- Lightly whisk to combine well and until the chocolate starts to melt. - - While that's happening, in a small bowl, add cornstarch and a splash of milk. - - Stir to combine well. This will be the slurry. Set aside. - - When the chocolate has completely melted, gradually pour in the rest of the milk while still whisking.
- Once everything has incorporated well, whisk in the slurry. - - Whisk until well combined. - - Lastly, add salt. Give it a final whisk. - - Remove from heat and drain thru a fine strainer over a serving glass.
- You can toast your marshmallow with a blow torch or under a broiler. Be sure your serving glass is heat or oven proof. - - But I prefer toasting my marshmallow under a broiler smoked with charcoal. - - What I did was burned some charcoal on the stove, placed the charcoal in a heat-proof bowl and wacked into the oven the same time as broiling the marshmallow.
- Once the marshmallow is charred, remove from oven. - - Grate some more dark chocolate over the top. - - Serve immediately.
