Pro-tips:
Serve warm or cold, but it is recommended if served right away if you plan to drink it. Otherwise you'll need a spoon. Oh, noooo! LOL
You may use plant-based dairy products. Experiment with ratios by adding a small amount of liquid at a time to achieve optimal consistency. You want the chocolate to be thick but drinkable.
Leftover whipped cream can be used on top of cake, in your coffee, or with a mug of hot cocoa.
