Recipe: Chocolate drink with burnt marshmallow topping

MANILA, Philippines — Craving for a chocolate drink that is a cut above the rest or is not the usual chocolate drink but with something more?

Chef Jackie Ang Po’s Creamy Rich Chocolate Drink, which she whipped up using Nestlé All Purpose Cream in a recent demo, just might fit the bill.

It can be served plain or topped with marshmallows torched to start a little meltdown, sprinkled with chocolate chips and drizzled with chocolate syrup.
