Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate Is A Decadent Treat

By Paul Murphy


When it comes to quick snacks after a meal, there are many options but few that are considered special. In a lot of cases, a person may want something that is quick or fairly light in consistency. Instead of gorging down cookies or something that lacks taste, try salted caramel hot chocolate for a change.

This is not to be confused with something that tastes sugary or leaves a slight aftertaste. Rich cocoa powder and real buttery caramel blend together to make a slightly denser version of this childhood favorite. The great news is there are some fantastic recipes that are made for discriminating tastes. No more waiting in long lines at the coffee shop or trendy restaurant.

The idea serving display will have a dozen or so small mugs or cups next to a tray of slightly sweet baked goods. Hard cookies with a mild flavor, like Danish butter, are the best choices since they will not overpower the taste of the chocolate. Guests may find this to be a nice dessert alternative.

Although salted caramel seems to be the dessert trend that will not go away, it is for good reason. The slight hint of sea salt lends itself well to the rich chocolate flavor. While some may think this is an overkill of sugar, most recipes call for dark chocolate instead of the milk version, which is mostly used to make candy.

Anyone who does not care about cutting calories may wonder about which finger foods may complement this beverage. Small but mildly spiced hard baked goods are a good choice. Imported almond biscotti, shortbread, or speculoos cookies are perfect companions since these are not overly sweet and have enough flavor to complement this type of hot chocolate.

Cauliflower is another vegetable that is becoming popular. It is used to make rice dishes, used in pizza dough, and is a vegetarian alternative to buffalo wings. The latter recipe calls for florets that have been lightly fried or oven roasted before covering in buffalo sauce. Most who have tried this say the slightly bitter texture is nowhere to be found and is great for everyday snacking.

Next is the salted caramel sauce. Although some who buy regular caramel say that the taste is not the same, or is too sweet, finding a brand that uses real sea salt may be a challenge. This is why some fans prefer to make theirs from scratch. The great thing about this method is they will have enough for more decadent drinks in the near future without having to travel.

Although some kids may like this drink, grownups should have something special for themselves. Sometimes kids like the sweetness of milk chocolate, which gives this drink a different profile. While a shot of rum or vodka may be the ideal chaser for those especially tense days, many who have tried this say the natural flavors are more than enough for a nice mental escape from reality.
