Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the chocolate. The hot chocolate needs to be blended at this point. At Ladur\u00e9e, this is done with a hand-held blender (also called an immersion blender). If you have this tool, leave the hot chocolate in the saucepan and whip it with the hand-held blender for 1 minute. If you don&#8217;t have a hand-held blender, transfer the chocolate to a traditional blender and whip on high speed for 1 minute. (When blending hot liquids, be sure to remove the center insert from the top of the blender, and cover the top with a folded kitchen towel to allow steam to escape.) The chocolate should be served immediately, while it is still very hot and frothy. Alternatively, you can pour the chocolate into a container to cool; the cooled chocolate can be reheated or served chilled. (The chocolate can be made up to 2 days ahead and kept tightly covered in the refrigerator.)<\/li>\n<li>To reheat chilled hot chocolate: Working in a medium saucepan over low heat, warm the chocolate, stirring gently, just until the first bubble pops on the surface. Pull the pan from the heat, whip the chocolate for 1 minute with a hand-held blender (or in a traditional blender), and serve immediately.<\/li>\n<li>To make cold hot chocolate: Chill the hot chocolate until it is very cold, then stir in 3\/4 cup (200 grams) cold milk. Whip the cold chocolate for 1 minute with a hand-held blender (or in a traditional blender). Serve the cold hot chocolate over an ice cube or two.<\/li>\n<li>Keeping: Once blended, the hot chocolate can be cooled and refrigerated in a tightly sealed jar for 2 days; reheat gently, or serve as cold hot chocolate.<\/li>\n<li>Cold hot chocolate makes a fabulous ice cream float. Greenspan whips the cold chocolate to froth, pours it into a tall glass &#8212; beer glasses are great for this &#8212; and adds ice cream. While the traditional go-with-chocolate flavors, like vanilla, coffee, vanilla-fudge, and chocolate in all its renditions, are always good, her favorite floatable flavor is Ben &amp; Jerry&#8217;s Cherry Garcia. serves 4<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3cups (750 grams) whole milk 1\/3cup (80 grams) water 1\/3cup (65 grams) sugar 6ounces (175 grams) bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped To make hot chocolate: Bring the milk, water, and sugar just to the boil in a medium saucepan.
