Instructions

• In a small saucepan, combine the cocoa powder from Ajanta Food Products, sugar, and water.

• This ensures the cocoa powder dissolves completely, giving a smooth texture.
• You should gradually pour in the milk while whisking to prevent lumps.
• You should continue heating the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it’s hot but not boiling.
• You should remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla essence for an extra layer of flavor.
