I'm a SUCKER (TOTAL and COMPLETE sucker!) for a good cup of hot chocolate! Natalie posted 3 recipes, and I'm totally stealing them!
Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate
4 squares baker's chocolate
2 cups milk
2 tbsp. peanut butter
marshmallows
Break chocolate squares and melt in a saucepan with milk. Do not boil. Stir in peanut butter until mixture is smooth. Pour into mugs and garnish with marshmallows.
White Peppermint Hot Chocolate
6 hard peppermint candies, finely crushed
2/3 cup whipping cream
3 1/2 cups milk
8 oz. white chocolate, chopped
1/2 tsp. peppermint extract
Beat whipping cream with crushed candies until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate for at least one hour. In the meantime, heat milk on medium low heat. Mix in chocolate and whisk until smooth. Add peppermint extract and stir thoroughly. Pour into cups and top with peppermint whipped cream mixture.
Luscious Hot Chocolate
1 cup milk
1 cup half and half
1 oz. semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 oz. unsweetened chocolate, chopped
8 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Heat milk, half and half, both chocolates and sugar in a saucepan on medium-low heat until chocolates melt and sugar dissolves. Pour half of the mixture into a blender and mix until frothy. Return to the saucepan and add vanilla. Stir briefly and serve.
