- 400 ml of semi-skimmed milk
- 1 tablet of dark chocolate or chocolate pearls

- In a saucepan we put 300 ml of the milk and we take it to the fire at medium-soft temperature.
- If we have the chocolate in a tablet, we chop it and add it to the milk.
- We let the chocolate melt completely, stirring with a few rods from time to time.
- In a separate container, put the remaining milk and cornmeal.

- We beat the mixture well until everything is integrated.
- Once the chocolate is well dissolved, we add the previous mixture little by little and without stopping stirring.
