A rich, velvety, and traditional Belgian hot chocolate made with high-quality dark chocolate.
Pour the milk into a saucepan and heat over medium heat until it starts to simmer (do not let it boil).
Add the finely chopped Meurisse dark chocolate and whisk continuously until it is completely melted and the milk is dark and glossy.
Add the sugar and cinnamon/vanilla if desired. Continue whisking for a minute to create a light foam.
Pour into warm mugs and serve immediately, topped with whipped cream if you're feeling indulgent.
