Ingredients

Hot Chocolate Base

  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup Nutella
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Garnish

  • Whipped cream
  • Hazelnut pieces

Instructions

  1. Heat the Milk: Pour 2 cups of milk into a saucepan and warm it over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling, creating the perfect base for your hot chocolate.
  2. Add Nutella and Dark Chocolate: Stir in 1/4 cup of Nutella along with 1/4 cup of dark chocolate chips, whisking continuously until all the chocolate melts completely and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Serve and Garnish: Pour the hot chocolate into mugs, then generously top with whipped cream and sprinkle with hazelnut pieces to add texture and extra flavor.

Notes

  • Use whole milk for a creamier texture or substitute with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Heat the milk gently to avoid scorching or boiling over.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or chili powder for a spicy twist.
  • Hazelnut pieces can be toasted for enhanced flavor and crunch.
  • Nutella can be replaced with any chocolate hazelnut spread of your choice.
