Colombian Hot Chocolate con Queso
Make Colombian Hot Chocolate con Queso (Hot Chocolate with Cheese) at home and make it taste just like you’re in Colombia with this recipe! Enjoy with some hot Colombian Buñuelos or arepas for the perfect treat.
Ingredients
- 2 cups (500 ml) milk (or water or half milk half water)
- 2 bars/pastillas chocolate such as Luker (or use your favorite chocolate bar, approximately 1/2 oz or 16 g)
- 1/4 cup (50 g) quesito or mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Heat the milk or water. Place the milk, chocolate and sugar (if using) in a chocolatera or medium saucepan over medium heat. Allow the mixture to reach a boil, stirring from time to time to keep the chocolate from sticking to the saucepan. If you want to add spices, add them in now. Some like to boil their hot chocolate 3 times (boil, remove from the heat and repeat), but you can skip this if you want.
- Make it foam. Whisk your chocolate with a traditional wooden molinillo, whisk, or milk foamer until a thick layer of foam forms on the top.
- Add the cheese! Place the cheese into your prepared cups or glasses and then pour the hot chocolate over the top of the cheese. Serve immediately with Buñuelos, arepas, or even almojabanas or your favorite snack!
