Ingredients

Instructions

Finely grate roughly 1 tablespoon of the dark chocolate and set aside for garnish.
Chop the remaining dark chocolate into large pieces.
Heat the sweet cream in a saucepan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes until steaming, but do not bring to a boil.
Remove from heat and stir the chopped chocolate into the cream for 1–2 minutes until completely dissolved and smooth.
Stir in the ground cinnamon and cardamom.
Stir in the strong freshly brewed coffee.
Pour the mixture into preheated glasses.
Add sugar to taste.
Use UHT (ultra-high temperature) milk if possible, as it froths best. Heat the milk over medium heat for 1–2 minutes until warm.
Whip the warm milk with a whisk or electric frother for 2–3 minutes until frothy.
Pour the frothy milk onto the coffee mixture.
Garnish with the grated chocolate.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
