Orange Hot Chocolate Delight (Printable Version)

A cozy blend of rich dark chocolate and bright orange with cinnamon spice for warmth and depth.

# Ingredients Required:

→ Fruits

01 - 1 medium orange, peel only

→ Dairy

02 - 500 ml whole milk

→ Chocolate and Cocoa

03 - 100 g dark chocolate, chopped

04 - 10 g unsweetened cocoa powder

→ Spices and Sweeteners

05 - 1 tsp ground cinnamon

06 - 15 g caster sugar

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Warm the milk gently over low heat and add the orange peel. Allow it to infuse for 5 minutes without boiling to extract the aroma.

02 - Remove the orange peel from the milk. Add the chopped dark chocolate, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and caster sugar to the warm milk. Stir continuously over low heat until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

03 - At the end, stir in 30 ml fresh orange juice to enhance the citrus flavor, mixing thoroughly.

04 - Pour the hot chocolate into cups and serve immediately, optionally garnished with a dusting of cinnamon or extra chocolate shavings.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Infusing the peel in warm milk rather than boiling preserves orange oils and prevents bitterness.
