One of the things I have always enjoyed is hot chocolate. And I love it flavored. Try this recipe favorite of mine.
2-oz (2 1-oz squares) unsweetened baking chocolate
2 tbsp very hot water
1 cup whole milk
2/3 cup sugar (now that I am a diabetic I use Splenda)
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups brewed coffee
2 cups hot whole milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Whipped cream for topping, if desired
Chocolate shavings for garnish, if desired
Melt the chocolate with the hot water and 1 cup of whole milk in the top of a double-boiler over hot water. Add the sugar, cinnamon, and salt, mixing well. Stir in the coffee. Heat the mixture for 5 minutes. Add the vanilla extract to the hot whole milk and add to the chocolate mixture; beat until frothy. Pour into cups and garnish with the whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired.
Serves 6.
