A more sophisticated hot chocolate from Cooking Light Magazine. You can still indulge yourself and stick to the New Years resolution of eating lighter! Since you use low fat milk, you can even top with a tiny bit of whipped cream! Ingredients:
2/3 cup chopped peeled fresh ginger |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/4 cup water |
8 cups nonfat milk |
1 cup chopped premium white baking chocolate (about 4 ounces of a ghiradelli type chocolate) |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a large sauce pan and cook over medium/high heat until sugar is disolved and the mixture starts to turn a soft golden color.
2. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
3. Whisk in milk and chocolate and return to stove.
4. Stirring frequently, bring heat up to about 180, or until bubbles start to form around the edges but do not boil.
5. Strain out solids and serve.
