Description

Rich, homemade spiced tahini hot chocolate made with lots of cocoa, warming winter spice, and toasty tahini.

Ingredients
  • 2 cups milk of choice
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons cane sugar
  • 45 grams bittersweet baking chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla paste
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • pinch of cayenne, to taste
  • 3 whole cloves
  • 1 whole star anise
  • Whipped cream, sesame seeds, and grated chocolate for topping
Instructions
  1. 1

    Add the milk, cocoa powder, bittersweet baking chocolate, sugar, tahini, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, cayenne, whole cloves, and whole star anise to a saucepan.

  2. 2

    Place the saucepan on a small burner over medium-low heat. Whisk the ingredients together, to begin incorporating the cocoa powder into the milk.

  3. 3

    Continue to whisk the cocoa every 1-2 minutes, ensuring the chocolate isn’t sticking to the bottom of the pan. Once the milk has warmed and the chocolate has completely melted, remove the pan from the heat.

  4. 4

    Remove the whole spices from the cocoa and ladle the drink into mugs. Top with whipped cream, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and some grated chocolate before serving. Enjoy!
