Instructions

1
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the milk until it just begins to steam. Do not let it boil.
2
Add the finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate to the warm milk and whisk continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and thick.
3
If a sweeter hot chocolate is desired, whisk in the granulated sugar until fully dissolved.
4
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
5
Pour the hot chocolate into two mugs or teacups.
6
Serve immediately, with a generous dollop of fresh whipped cream on top or on the side. Enjoy with croissants for dipping and fresh strawberries.
