March and April weather is always volatile in Zürich. You think spring is in the air, and the next day it will be hailing and temperature will drop to 1 degrees celsius!

A cold and wet day like today, there’s nothing better than a cup of homemade hot chocolate, made with high quality Swiss dark chocolate. Here’s an easy and fast recipe for a confectionery-style rich hot chocolate that will surprise your family and friends.

Recipe for two servings

2. In a pot, bring the milk to a quick boil. Remove from heat (important!)
3. Add in the chopped chocolate into the hot milk.
4. Add in 1-2 dash of powdered cinnamon.
5. Stir with a whisk until no chunks of chocolate are left.
6. Serve in a pretty cup. Enjoy!
