Heating Chocolate & Milk For Hot Cocoa

Video Transcript

"Hello my name is Melissa and on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to teach you how to make the perfect cup of hot chocolate. Alright in this clip it is time to head to the stove so we want to heat up our milk, we want to heat up our chocolate and on the way we go. So turn your oven on or your stove rather onto a medium setting, you don't want it to hot because you don't want to bring your milk and you don't want to burn your chocolate. 2 things that burn very easily on the stove so heat that up to medium a medium setting and medium to low and then you are going to want to pour in your milk and then your would pour in your chocolate. You are going to make sure that you are always by the stove when you are working with milk and chocolate use they do burn very easily. Now how will we prepare this? Use a whisk because this is how you are going to mix this up contently so you are going to want to stay by this not really going any where. You are going to wait until this begins to melt. So we would start this off for you and I would join your in the next clip but a good thing to keep in mind to is one again you are always going to want to stay by this. In this case we have been using chocolate chips so it is going to take a few minutes for this to melt but you don't want to burn the chunks of course and of course it is going to melt in different times and whisk is good to whisk your hot chocolate as go of course cause you are going to have little fine bits that would not have melted as fast as some of the other chocolate bits. So a good idea stay by the stove, I can already feel the heat on there from the pot in there and this is eventually going to melt so you would have a look at this in just a few moments. "
