Hot Chocolate with Cheese

(A tradition that melts in your mouth and warms the soul)Some things are simple… and taste like home.A thick, rich hot chocolate made with Chocolate Corona, paired with soft white cheese cubes that slowly melt at the bottom of your cup—this is one of those pleasures that needs no explanation.Perfect for chilly mornings, soulful snacks, or any moment when all you want is a cup that feels like a hug.Ingredients (for 2 cups):2 cups of milk (can be whole or plant-based)3 tablets of Chocolate Corona Tradicional6–9 cubes of semi-firm white cheese (like queso campesino, costeño, or paisa)[Optional: a bit of grated panela or cinnamon]How to make it:Heat the milk in a pot over medium heat.Once it’s hot (but not boiling), add the chocolate tablets and begin stirring.Here’s the special touch:I use a traditional wooden whisk (molinillo) and beat it with intention until the chocolate melts completely and a thick, beautiful foam forms on top.Serve immediately in deep mugs, and drop the cheese cubes right into the bottom.Let them sit for a few seconds to melt… then enjoy every sip slowly—with a spoon, with bread, or just with joy.Personal Tip:Sometimes I scoop out the melted cheese with a spoon.Sometimes I bite into it between sips.There are no rules. Just bliss.
