How to Make a Classic Hot Chocolate:

Decorate a heatproof glass with chocolate Topping sauce (or any flavour sauce you like!)
Steam milk with Van Houten chocolate drink powder
Pour into glass and top with Marshmallows and whipped cream
Sprinkle with cocoa powder, or drizzle a little more sauce on top, and a few Crispearls – why not!

Enjoyed this recipe? Next time, why not add Spice Drops to give your hot chocolate an extra kick? We like orange, coconut or mint! Or, raspberry would be great in a ruby hot chocolate! (Just remember to add a scoop of beetroot powder to give it that luscious pink hue, as ruby chocolate can turn grey when left for more than 30 minutes, due to its natural colour properties.)
