Ha mi chocolate con leche yo le agrego nuez moscada y un poco de cáscara de limón también. Yo no le agrego agua ni maizena. A mi me sale bastante espeso. Yo creo que es porque no le agrego agua. De esta manera no le tengo que agregar maizena. Para aquellos que no toleran lactosa mucho (como a mi), como me encanta mi chocolate de leche, yo hago el mío con leche evaporada sin lactosa.
