Chocolate de Maní [Recipe + Video] Dominican Peanut 'Cocoa'
Report
This warm, thick, creamy, flavorful chocolate de maní (roasted peanut 'cocoa') was a popular weekend breakfast tradition in my family, and very much worth trying.

Ingredients
- 1½ cup peanuts unsalted, toasted
- 2 quarts milk 2 lt, skim
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar or to taste
- 2 cinnamon stick
- 6 cloves
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg optional, freshly-grated
Instructions
1. Blending
- Blend the roasted peanuts with the milk and half of the sugar. This may take some time; we don't want it to have a grainy texture. I ran the blender for 3 minutes at full speed, cleaned the sides with a spatula, and blended for two more minutes. You may have to blend more or less depending on your blender.Add all other ingredients and sugar to taste. Pour into a saucepan.
2. Heating
- Boil for 10 minutes over low heat.Remove the cinnamon sticks and cloves.
3. Serving
- Serve hot, and sprinkle the nutmeg on top.
Notes
- Use almond, soy or rice milk for a vegan version.
- You may use sweetener of your choice in place of sugar.
