Cocoa and Hazelnut Kissel

Kissel can be both good for you and really delicious. I was reminded of this recipe the other day — I used to make kissel this way all the time. I kept trying to get my kid into the drink, but he never took the fruit-and-berry versions seriously. The chocolate one, though, with nuts on top, was a huge hit. (Kissel is a thick, sweet, starch-thickened drink you can sip warm or eat with a spoon.)

    1. Mix the cocoa powder with the sugar and vanilla sugar.
    1. Pour 500 ml of the milk into a saucepan, set it over medium heat, and bring it just up to a boil — don't let it boil hard.
    1. Stir in the cocoa-sugar mixture and bring it back up to a boil, stirring.
    1. Stir the starch into the remaining cold milk, mixing thoroughly so there are no lumps.
    1. Stirring constantly, pour the starch mixture into the cocoa in a thin stream, then heat, still stirring, for 5 minutes. Take the saucepan off the heat.
    1. Let the kissel rest, covered, for 5 minutes, then pour it into cups.
    1. Sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts.
