A rich and creamy dark chocolate drink, perfect for cozy evenings.
Heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it starts to simmer.
Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from scorching.
Add the sugar and dark chocolate to the milk, stirring until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Use a whisk to ensure the chocolate melts evenly and integrates well with the milk.
Stir in the vanilla extract and mix well.
Adding the vanilla at the end preserves its delicate flavor.
Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and serve immediately.
Pre-warm the mugs with hot water to keep the drink warm for longer.
