Introduction
A rich, velvety, and decadent homemade hot chocolate thickened slightly with a cornstarch slurry for an ultra-creamy texture. Infused with vanilla, a touch of cinnamon, and a splash of Baileys Irish Cream, it is topped with Baileys-flavored whipped cream and a light dust of cocoa powder.
Step 1
Pour 6 oz of milk and 2 oz of heavy cream into a saucepan over medium heat.
Step 2
Whisk in 1 tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder until it is fully incorporated and heated through.
Step 3
Add 2 oz of chopped 70% dark chocolate and continue whisking until the chocolate is completely melted.
Step 4
Add 2 tbsp of sugar to the pot and stir until dissolved.
Step 5
In a separate small bowl, dissolve 1 tsp of cornstarch in 2 oz of cold milk. Whisk this cornstarch slurry into the hot chocolate mixture, then bring to a gentle boil to activate the starch and thicken the liquid.

Important Notes
Using high-quality dark chocolate (around 70% cocoa) instead of sweet milk chocolate yields a richer and more authentic cocoa flavor.
Adding cornstarch thickens the drink slightly, allowing the chocolate to coat your tongue and leaving a longer-lasting flavor.
Keep the cinnamon addition very minimal so it acts as an background aroma without overpowering the chocolate flavor.
