step by step

Method

  1. Combine the ingredients

    • Add the milk, condensed milk, coffee and chopped chocolate to a pot.
    Step 1

  2. Melt the chocolate

    • Warm over very low heat, whisking every few minutes, until the chocolate is fully melted.
    Step 2

  3. Simmer and reduce

    • Bring to a gentle simmer and let it go, stirring the sides and bottom with a rubber spatula every so often.
    • The water in the milk and coffee evaporates, thickening the cocoa without any starches and concentrating the flavor.
