setting. Pour the milk into the pre-chilled

frothing pitcher. Hold the pitcher in one hand

and place it under the steam wand so the

bottom of the wand is just below the surface

of the milk. Press the steam button and while

holding the pitcher at an angle, allow the

steam to move the milk around. Once the milk

begins to increase in volume, lift the pitcher

higher so the steam wand is immersed farther

into the milk. Move the pitcher up and down a

couple of times to achieve a nice foam. When

the foam has almost reached the top of the

pitcher, press the power button to turn the

espresso maker off. Reserve steamed/frothed

milk.
Turn the espresso maker back on. Wait for the

machine to re-warm, if necessary. Place one

demitasse cup underneath the brew head and

press the

single espresso button.

Espresso will begin to brew. When 1½ ounces

have been brewed the machine will stop.
Add the chocolate syrup and about 4 ounces

of the steamed milk to the glass; stir. Spoon

1 to 2 tablespoons of the frothed milk on top.

If desired, top with shaved chocolate or cocoa

powder.
