Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the creamy topping. In a clean bowl, combine 60g of heavy whipping cream and 5g of sugar. These ingredients will add a lovely sweetness and smooth texture to your latte.
Step 2
Using a hand mixer, whip the cream mixture. Continue whipping until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to over-whip, as we want a creamy consistency that’s still pourable.
Step 3
Check the consistency of the whipped cream. It should be thick but still loose enough to pour, allowing it to blend beautifully with the chocolate base without being too stiff. Aim for a smooth, flowing texture.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to create the rich chocolate base. In a separate jug or bowl, add 13g of cocoa powder. Ensure the cocoa powder is lump-free for a smooth blend.
Step 5
Next, stir in 8g of chocolate syrup. This will amplify the deep chocolate flavor and add a touch of sweetness.
Step 6
Finally, pour in 2 shots of freshly brewed espresso. The espresso will cut through the sweetness and enhance the complex chocolate notes, giving your latte its characteristic depth.
Step 7
Using a whisk or a small spatula, mix all the ingredients for the chocolate base thoroughly until well combined and smooth. Ensure there are no lumps of cocoa powder remaining for a velvety finish.
Step 8
Your delicious chocolate base is now complete! You can already smell the wonderful chocolate aroma.
Step 9
Prepare your serving glass by filling it about 70% full with ice cubes. This will ensure your latte is perfectly chilled.
Step 10
Gently pour 120ml of milk over the ice. The milk adds creaminess and serves as the perfect canvas for the rich chocolate flavors.
Step 11
Slowly pour the prepared chocolate base over the milk and ice. Watch as the layers begin to form, creating an visually appealing drink.
Step 12
Carefully spoon or pour the lightly whipped cream on top of the latte. This creates a luxurious, cloud-like topping.
Step 13
For an extra touch of indulgence, drizzle some chocolate syrup over the whipped cream in a pattern of your choice. This adds visual appeal and an extra burst of chocolatey goodness.
Step 14
And there you have it – your homemade Double Chocolate Latte, rich, decadent, and ready to be enjoyed! Perfect for a cozy treat.
