Who doesn’t fancy a cup of Cocoa during the chilly winter days?
Whenever I make this Homemade Hot Cocoa recipe I always think of one of my favorite movies, ‘Chocolat.’ A favorite part of mine is when Vianne is pouring her gorgeous homemade hot cocoa into an old fashioned french style cup and she tops it off with a pinch of Chili Pepper.
Haley’s Homemade Hot Cocoa
2 Cups Organic Whole Milk
1/2 Cup 70% Dark Chocolate, Chopped
1/2 Cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 t Chili Pepper
In a pot, heat the milk on the stove on medium high then add in the chocolate, chili and stir till thick and gorgeous.
Serve warm or cold for an amazing chocolate treat!

I just tried this. I didn’t have 70% so I used 85%. Didn’t have whole milk so I used soy. My husband however is thrilled he’s drinking liquefied dark chocolate.

Yay! I don’t believe there is anything better than liquefied chocolate, other than it putting a smile on some-ones face. Bon Appetit!

Sounds delicious. Pretty photos too! I forgot about that movie—thanks for the reminder, I should watch it again.
