Café submarino casero

Who doesn't like a frothy coffee or a cup of hot chocolate? I think everyone does, whether it's to warm up on a cold day, or to get the energy going before starting the day. On both occasions, they don't hurt.

But what if we invented doing both together?

One of the things that pleasantly surprised me when I arrived in Argentina, was to see in the menu of a coffee shop, a coffee called submarine, and the truth is that I loved not only its flavor, but the ritual that involves "sinking" the submarine in that pseudo sea of coffee.

That is why today I bring you a way to emulate it at home, which besides being simple, is very delicious to enjoy alone or to surprise a visitor.

For this we are going to need
-Two tablespoons of instant coffee
-1 cup of hot water
-Half cup of liquid milk
-2 tablespoons of cold whipping cream
-1 small bar of chocolate or 4 cubes of milk chocolate
-Sugar to taste

Preparation
Dissolve the two tablespoons of instant coffee with a little natural water and stir until a homogeneous paste is obtained. Add the hot water until 3/4 of the cup is filled.

Whip the cream together with the half cup of milk and add to the coffee.

If you are one of those who use sugar, this will be the moment to add it. Stir lightly so that everything is mixed, without diluting the consistency of the milk.

Finally, add the chocolate bar and sink it to the bottom. Wait a couple of minutes for it to begin to melt and then stir until it dissolves completely.

The result will be a slightly thick drink, with an exquisite mixture of flavors between chocolate, cream and coffee, ideal to drink in the afternoon, accompanied by cookies or a vanilla and almond muffin.

If you want to turn a regular cup of coffee into a delicacy that raises the level of what you always consume, I invite you to try it and let me know.
