Ingredients 3 ingredients

  1. Sugar
  2. Cocoa
  3. a cup of milk

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Blending hot liquid. Let it cool a little first, fill the blender no more than a third, and hold the lid down with a folded towel. Start on the lowest speed. A stick blender in the pan is safer.

Method

  1. For each person to be served measure into a saucepan a level teaspoonful each of cocoa and sugar.
  2. Blend these with a little milk.
  3. Then add a cup of milk for each portion.
  4. Bring just to a boil, over a rather slow fire, and serve immediately.
