Instructions
- Add the milk, chopped chocolate, cocoa powder and sugar to a saucepan and heat, stirring occasionally until the chocolate has melted and sugar dissolved.
- Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of milk and add that to the hot chocolate. Continue to heat the hot chocolate while stirring until thick and smooth.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the Frangelico or liqueur of choice.
- Pour the hot chocolate into small mugs and top each one with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and serve.
Notes
- Use good quality ingredients - good quality chocolate, cocoa powder and ice cream will make a big difference. For the dark chocolate go for at least 70% cocoa. I haven't tried this with milk chocolate but I'm guessing it would be far too sweet.

- Other liqueurs to use - if you don't have Frangelico, Amaretto is also delicious. Others that would work well are Baileys, Kaluha, rum or brandy (choose your favourite).

- Ice cream thawing - the hot chocolate takes about 10 minutes to make from start to finish so remove the ice cream from the freezer about halfway through so it's not too soft when serving. Reheating - you can store any leftover hot chocolate in the fridge (once cooled) and reheat it as needed. it will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. Serve cold - also delicious served as a room temperature dessert. Serving to children? simply omit the liqueur.
