Decadently Thick Italian Hot Chocolate

Step 1

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.

Step 2

Whisk in cornstarch until combined and melty. If you want the hot chocolate thicker, use the maximum amount of cornstarch.

Step 3

Add in milk and sugar. Increase the heat gradually to medium-high. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Mixture will start to thicken.

Step 4

Once the mixture begins to thicken, turn the heat down to low and add in the chocolate chips. Stir constantly until well melted.

Step 5

Serve hot. Keep the leftovers because it is also amazing, if not better cold!
