Why is my hot chocolate dip grainy?
If you serve the dip too soon after mixing then you will not have given the dry cocoa mix enough time to absorb liquids and dissolve. The texture will then be a tad grainy but it will soften as the dip sits.
How to store hot cocoa dip
Keep this dip stored in the fridge in an airtight or well covered container when not being eaten. It can last up to a few days (3 or 4) but may require stirring before serving in case the contents settle or separate.
