Ingredients:
1/2 cup (55 g) unsweetened powdered cocoa 1 cup (200 g) sugar 7 tsp (25 g) cornstarch (cornflour) 1/2 cup (120 ml) water 4 cups (1 l) milk
Directions:
1 Mix the cocoa and sugar together. 2 Dissolve the cornstarch (cornflour) in the water and combine with the cocoa-sugar mixture in a medium-sized saucepan. Stir this until it is a smooth paste. 3 Begin heating this mixture, continuously stirring it with a whisk. Gradually pour in the milk. Continue stirring as you bring it to a simmer. 4 Simmer, stirring often, for about 10 minutes. The cocoa is ready when it thickens and is glossy and smooth. The consistency of the finished product should resemble chocolate pudding that didn't quite set. If you halve this recipe, you'll get just the right amount for two large mug-fulls.
