The secret to making hot chocolate is always adding coffee. Also if you have a frother at home pour in creamer and some vanilla extract and then froth it and put that as a topping on hot chocolate and it’s BUSSIN
@@zach3861 foods and drinks can have multiple flavors, coffee just adds a nice flavor to the hot chocolate. So yes, making it taste more like coffee does make it taste better in my opinion
Actually, if I remember correctly, some of the videos he mentioned at the start do. Some videos had multiple recipes, but Kwoowk just chose the most “normal” ones to make the comparison more natural. I’m glad he did tbh, ‘cuz now we can base the quality of the rest of the remaining recipes off of the ones he compared in this video. ‘Cuz if you can get the basics right, you’ll probably also do better on the more specialized recipes
I always use cayenne in mine, along with pumpkin spice and vanilla extract! I also follow a recipe for whipped coffee to put it on the top (but I only go like halfway so it's a foam). 10/10 IMO, and the cayenne adds a great warmth that it's otherwise lacking :D
Joshua used chilies for a mexican variant which was kinda a completely different recipe altogether in the same video (including different methodology and not just adding to a base of hot chocolate)
I love making my own hot chocolate. I'll even use min chocolate, Lindt truffles.. basically whatever chocolate I have I can pretty much turn into hot chocolate.
I just stir some cacao powder, sugar, and a little cinnamon into hot milk. It's a good balance of flavor and convenience for someone who drinks this stuff multiple times a day during winter.
I love the Joshua weissman way because it reminds me of the thiccccc italian Hot chocolate. I basically put some 50% chocolate with cinnamon, Salt and coffee, heat it up and add milk until thick, and that's basically it, sometimes i change something like i add vanille instead of coffee or cinnamon
that's so unfair that you didnt add honey to compensate for the marshmallows on adams!! ive made that one a ton, the honey flavor of the marshmallows is why he keeps it simple 😤
My hot chocolate comprises of milk, cocoa Powder, coffee powder, vanilla, dark chocolate chunks, cinnamon, cloves, salt, pepper, ginger. This is what works for me every time
I always take the ginger and maple syrup from YSAC's recipe's into consideration, but would like to make homemade marshmallows from Adam Ragusea's method, and use a milk frother (one that heats/stirs) to emulate the use of a blender. Each channel has their own advantages, and combining is 100% the way to find what works best.
You should try a traditional Caribbean Chocolate tea or Coco tea I reccomend Tobagonian chocolate tea I think you would like it It would have an umph you are looking for, I think It wouldn't have Whip cream and marshmallows, so you can focus on the liquid Think it's also good to do since it's Christmas again Also please consider doing a Caribbean food series Taking similar dishes from across the region and finding your favorite version May cause a few fights but it would ve good to see the similarities and differences
We just made Babish' recipe and it was DISGUSTINGLY sweet. I really recommend using only half of the condensed milk! We had to add a shitton of milk to make it drinkable again...
I did wonder why he added condensed milk and then MORE sugar on top of that. Surely condensed milk is super sweet already? Whenever I use American dessert recipes online, I always have to reduce the sugar, I guess they have a much sweeter palette than my country.
@@MisterM2402yea. Here in America, we have a stronger sweet tooth only cuz it’s a part of the cuisine. Also, people don’t have time to make their own food cuz of their busy work schedules, so a common breakfast/snack is like donuts, cookies, bagels, along with coffee. That’s why I have a stronger sweet tooth (I don’t eat a lot of sugar thou) than many people 😅
Ive seen BwB’s and J weissmans videos,I agree with you,The consistency seems more like a Liquidy pudding than a Actual Hot chocolate. I knew that Binging W/ babish’s Take would be Pretty advanced,There seemed to be a Lot of thinking in it,And he was re-vamping What was meant to be The best from a Movie. (Flanders serves Bart a cup in the movie,And Bart utters a quiet “Oh my god”.)
I have a request. Could you please make a video on porridge? Not instant porridge but relatively quick meals? I´m a mom of two small kids and I´m always looking for some easy meals to make in the morning. If the kids and husband would have it their way, it would be cereal 7 days a week, so if you do this, you will really help me :)
Good to know I've made a tradition of drinking "the 2nd best" hot chocolate on RUclips for the past few years. Time to try the first. Thanks for the vid
There hundred if not thousands of hot cocoa recipes out there with all sorts of unusual additions: Salt, vanilla, cinnamon, chili powder, cornstarch, instant coffee, heavy cream, butter, etc. After years I just realized the simplest and easies and quick hot cocoa recipes involve: store-bought quality chocolate milk. Heat in a sauce pot. Voila
My hot chocolate rocks. Its coco powder with hot water in a pan which you add both dark and white chocolate, pinch of salt, cinnamon, coffee and sometimes either red wine or fruit. Then if I want to I top with milk and spoon into a cup. Then I add a layer of ice cream (which cools down the drink to the perfect temp as you sip) and sometimes a piece of chocolate or a biscuit to decorate. Again the only necessary parts are the chocolate and spices topped with ice cream (not even milk) and is the best way to make cheap stuff, good. One cup is probably at most £2 if you use better stuff but the cheap stuff still works well.
I personally like to add a little bit of the oil from chili oil to the hot chocolate unironically feels nice when it slides down the esophogus but not when you taste it
'seasoning' is the difference between hot chocolate milk and actual hot chocolate. Cayenne, ginger, cinnamon, or just a pinch of salt makes hot chocolate 10x better
I gotta tell you there is a difference between hot cocoa and hot chocolate. The last one you made was a beautiful hot chocolate. The others were all hot cocoa. I prefer hot chocolate so thick it needs a spoon. But you much be a true chocolate connoisseur to appreciate and adore it properly.
If I am feeling fancy, I’ll make a hot chocolate using cinnamon, dark chocolate, cocoa powder and the likes but a quick fix for me would be equal amount of heaping spoonful of cocoa powder dissolved in hot water and sugar (I used keto sugar) with good amount of cold milk and ice. Quick and satisfying hot or iced chocolate I tell.
Wish you had put the winning recipe in the description.....or in a pinned comment..... now I have to try to find the spot and write it down quick and hope I get it right. Thanks for sharing though
My issues with hot cocoa is that it's always too sweet and not nearly chocolatey enough. I've been rifling through hot chocolate videos to find one that looks just the right amount of bitter and sweet to replace my morning coffee. If this doesn't work, I guess I just don't like hot cocoa/chocolate and I move on to trying different teas to keep the morning routine going without the high caffeine intake. =/
Irish milk chocolate like galaxy or dairy milk, a small bit of dark chocolate and oat milk and you're laughing. Really want to make your mornings good? Add a double shot of coffee. (We have a coffee shop called Insomnia that has Belgian chocolate melting 24/7, I used to work here and make oat milk mochas with this chocolate
Wait, you have a blowtorch but not a can opener?! Priorities, I respect that.

The secret to making hot choclate is to make it taste more like coffee and less like chocolate?

I'm surprised no one used cayenne in their recipe. It rocks the chocolate.

Using a small amount of burnt/toasted honey gives a whole new flavor profile that is amazing

I am definitely going to try these out man 😀
I actually open condensed milk cans just like this 🤣 savage mode 🤣
Making Babish's recipe with some cornstarch like Wiseman sounds like the right thing to do
the last one is by the way the *only* way we prepare hot chocolate in Spain, liquid hot chocolate is just called colacao here
Cool to see adam here. I love the simplicity and results of all his recipes
You should try a traditional Caribbean Chocolate tea or Coco tea
I reccomend Tobagonian chocolate tea
I think you would like it
It would have an umph you are looking for, I think
It wouldn't have Whip cream and marshmallows, so you can focus on the liquid
Think it's also good to do since it's Christmas again
Also please consider doing a Caribbean food series
Taking similar dishes from across the region and finding your favorite version

theres nothing better than hot chocolate when its winter
and watching 8 mins of hot chocolate
best way to waste 8 mins
thank you
Kitchen on the cliff with Giovanna has my fave.
Hey Kwoowk, can you combine the top 3 hot chocolates to make the ultimate one
i just had the insane idea: hot chocolate- tapioca tea
Yeeees that's what I need in this weather 🔥
When I was little my mom used to make a hot chocolate so thick cookies would bouncing off it :D
For me, simplicity is key. I don't want a hot chocolate recipe to take forever. Just a quick comfy beverage I can slap together quickly.
My favorite hot drink is definitely boiled apple juice with cinnamon and dryed oranges
favorite and favourite are both correct, one is american based, other british
Recipe?😢

Great video. Got me watering my mouth. Infinite chocolate.
You're supposed to add the chocolate to the mixture in the end, the turn off the heat and keep mixing 30-60 seconds till it's all dissolved.
mexican hot chocolate. best of all time
In colombia we make it with water, panela and cocoa and then add cheese and smashed cookies

Cardamom tastes good
Not just any instant coffee, must try Ferraro Instant Espresso
can someone please tell me what's cream? Im not good at English and have no idea if its yogurt or what.
It's not yoghurt
It's the liquid that you use to make whipped cream. You might also hear it being referred to as "heavy cream" or "heavy whipping cream".
@@_imi_ ohhhhh thanks! I now get it.
The Weissman one is a northern Italian recipe
can u make a part 2 and add in mexican hot chocolate as a contender?
I can NOT get over the fact that he just whipped cream manually!!!
Doesnt he have a hand beater? 🤣
Hot chocolate 🥰 .......CHRISTMASSSSS
Check that your blender is heat resistant before using it with hot food! It'll crack the jug otherwise!
Flanders doesn't put a graham cracker, he puts a vanilla waffer.
"Mr suck"😂😂😂
And now we need to know what's the best nice and cool cocoa.
If you're going to make whip cream without a mixer, put it in a jar and shake. Much quicker and less miserable than hand-whisking.
And immersion blender is magic.
