About the recipe

This hot chocolate is off the scale. It’s so simple to make and is much better than that shop-bought stuff you get, which is often full of rubbish and probably hasn’t got much chocolate in it anyway. I don’t want you to feel cheated, I want you to have the real thing… life’s too short not to.

Billy and the Giant Adventure

By Jamie Oliver

Ingredients

1.5 pints of semi-skimmed milk

HOT CHOCOLATE MIX

2 tablespoons Horlicks

2 tablespoons cornflour

3 tablespoons icing sugar

4 tablespoons quality cocoa powder

1 pinch of ground cinnamon

100g quality dark chocolate (70%)

Method

This hot chocolate is off the scale and so simple to make… much better than the shop-bought stuff

  1. Pour the milk into a large pan, and bring almost to the boil over a medium heat.
  2. Meanwhile, add all the chocolate mix ingredients to a large jar, finely grating in the chocolate, then give it a good shake to combine.
  3. Simply spoon all of the chocolate mix into the hot milk, give it a good whisk and leave to bubble away for a few minutes before serving – you’re looking for that gorgeous, thick, almost claggy, knockout texture.
