Hot Chocolate
December 09, 2018
I like to make this spicy hot chocolate from scratch. It has a rich chocolatey flavor without being too thick.
I like to make this a dessert cocktail sometimes, adding about 1 ounce of whiskey or rum to 5 ounces of the hot chocolate.
Ingredients
- 10 ounces milk
- 1 oz. chocolate chips
- 1 stick cinnamon
- dash nutmeg
- splash vanilla extract
