Combine 2 cups of whole milk and 2 tbsp of sugar (or more if you like a sweeter hot chocolate) into a saucepan. Heat up the milk until it starts to bubble but not boil.

Melt 1 cup of Santo Tomas 70% Dark Chocolate Couverture and add it to the hot milk.

Whisk until fully combined and pour into a mug.

To make this hearty hot chocolate extra special, top with marshmallows, whipped cream and crushed candy canes!
