white hot chocolate
- 3 oz. white chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup non-fat dry milk powder
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- whipped cream & sprinkles, for serving
Yield: 1 large or 2 small servings
Ingredients:
3 ounces good quality white chocolate, finely chopped
1 teaspoon tapioca starch* or cornstarch
1/4 cup non-fat dry milk powder
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles, for serving
Directions:
Place chopped chocolate in a medium, heat-proof bowl and set aside.
In a saucepan, whisk together starch and milk powder. Slowly pour in milk, whisking until smooth and no lumps remain. Heat over medium heat until mixture just starts to steam. Pour over white chocolate. Let sit for 30 seconds, then stir until smooth and melted.
Return mixture to saucepan and stir over medium heat until thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Divide among mugs, top with whipped cream and sprinkles, and serve.
*Look for tapioca starch (not to be confused with the granules/pearls or pudding) in the baking isle of specialty grocers (I used the Let's Do Organic brand from Whole Foods), online, or at asian food stores. I liked it because it thickens just as effectively as cornstarch but with a creamier texture and no starchy aftertaste.
