I had my first mug of hot chocolate tonight. I really wanted tea, but I go to bed so early that it sometimes disturbs my sleep.
But, I was chilled and needed something. I warmed some milk in a pot with a bit of chocolate syrup, a pinch of vanilla and the tiniest dash of nutmeg.
When I really have time, I'll warm the milk with chunks of a very good quality semi-sweet chocolate, some sugar, a vanilla bean and a dash of brandy. Then, top it with whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar.
I never much cared for those marshmallows floating about. Something creepy about watching them melt helplessly into the cup..
Anyone else have a good hot chocolate recipe?
