Run out of chocolate syrup but still want a nice sweet snack? The answer is cocoa powder. Making chocolate milk with this ingredient is as easy as shaking a bottle of your favorite chocolate syrup.
Ingrediants
25 grams of white sugar (granulated)
10 grams of cocoa powder
Normal or powdered milk
Steps
Step 1. Take a spoon slightly smaller than a table spoon
A measuring spoon is perfect, but a regular one will do too. Pour two teaspoons of sugar and two teaspoons of cocoa powder into a saucepan. Start with equal quantities. Then, if needed, you can adjust them.
Step 2. Add enough milk to make a fairly thick and lumpy dough in the bottom of the pot
Step 3. Turn on the stove over low heat
Step 4. Put the pot on the stove and stir constantly
Step 5. When the mixture has no more lumps, pour it into a glass
Step 6. Add the rest of the milk - always keep stirring
Step 7. If you use a microwave:
1. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 (using a microwave safe cup instead of a saucepan).
2. Put the cup in the microwave. Let the mixture heat for 20 seconds on maximum power.
3. Remove the cup from the microwave and stir.
4. Put it in the microwave once or twice (always stirring in the meantime), or until there are no more lumps.
5. Finish by mixing with the rest of the milk.
Step 8. Finished
Advice
A whisk will help you to avoid lumps.
