Bicerin (Italian coffee and chocolate drink)

Bicerin is a hot drink from Turin, Italy. A layer of espresso is topped with a layer of melted chocolate followed by a layer of whipped cream. Heaven.

Don’t be tempted to stir the layers of bicerin together – the joy in drinking it is getting the mixture of hot and cold layers of different textures. This recipe is from Chris Leach, chef at lauded Italian restaurant Manteca in London.
