Jacques Torres? Ultimate Hot Cocoa

In small saucepan, bring 1 cup 2% milk to a boil on stovetop. Stir in 1/2 cup Jacques Torres Hot Chocolate Powder, then bring to a boil a second time. Pour into a mug and serve.

Alternative: Bring 1 cup milk to a boil on stovetop. Add 3 tablespoons cream and 2 to 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate. Bring to a second boil; stir until chocolate melts and is incorporated.

Top Tip: "Boiling the milk a second time is the secret. It makes the milk incredibly thick and amazing."
