Over the last few days it has snowed soooo much! Yesterday, I made this hot chocolate for my family after they came in from sledding. It was absolutely fabulous! I LOVE a good cup of hot chocolate!
Ultimate Hot Chocolate
2- 1 oz. squares of unsweetened baking chocolate
1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
4 cups water
1 tsp. vanilla
Method 1: Using a Hot Chocolate Machine
In your microwave, heat the chocolate and sweetened condensed milk over on medium until the chocolate is completely melted (about 2 minutes). Whisk together to combine. Combine water, chocolate mixture, and vanilla in your machine and turn it on.
Method 2: Using your stove top
Follow above directions for chocolate mixture. In large saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate mixture.
Either way you make it, serve in mugs with a dollop of whipped cream or marshmallows and a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired. Serves about 6.
Variations:
Mexican Hot Chocolate: Add 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and 1/8-1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper in with the vanilla.
Mint Hot Chocolate: Replace vanilla with 1 tsp. mint (NOT spearmint) extract.
Peppermint Hot Chocolate: Replace vanilla with 1 tsp. peppermint extract. Serve with a candy cane to stir.
Almond or Hazelnut Hot Chocolate: Replace vanilla with 1 tsp. almond or hazelnut extract.
