Chocolate Drink Recipe

INGREDIENTS

    • 2 tablespoons Koko Loa cocoa powder

    • 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar (depending on how sweet you like it)

    • Pinch of salt

    • 1 cup milk or any combination of milk, half-and-half, or cream

    • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

PREPARATION

    1. Whisk together the cocoa, sugar, salt, and about 2 tablespoons milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until cocoa and sugar are dissolved. Whisk in the rest of the milk and heat it over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until it is hot. Stir in the vanilla and serve.

    2. If you like it frothy, blend it in the blender.

    3. This recipe multiplies easily. When you get up to a quart of milk, use 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Instructions

The Most Amazing Chocolate Cake

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter three 9-inch cake rounds. Dust with flour and tap out the excess.

  • Mix together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a stand mixer using a low speed until combined.

  • Add eggs, buttermilk, warm water, oil, and vanilla. Beat on a medium speed until smooth. This should take just a couple of minutes.

  • Divide batter among the three pans. I found that it took just over 3 cups of the batter to divide it evenly.

  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Cool on wire racks for 15 minutes and then turn out the cakes onto the racks and allow to cool completely.

  • Frost with your favorite frosting and enjoy!
