So, in searching for some fun pictures I came across this recipe for hot chocolate that sounds absolutely divine. Mmmm.
Heart Warming Mulled Hot Chocolate!
Source
Here is the delicious and super simple recipe which I hope will keep you warm and happy too:
*
4 cups organic full fat milk (substitute with rice milk or soya milk for a dairy free version)
*
6 tbsp CHOC Chick Raw Cacao Powder
*
4-6 tbsp Sweet Freedom or Agave or honey
*
2 cinnamon sticks or 3 tsp ground cinnamon
*
1-2 tsp grated nutmeg
*
2-3 whole cloves or 1 tsp ground cloves
*
2 tsp vanilla extract
*
4-6 capfuls of Rum, Brady and or Cognac (to taste!)
*
4 tbsp double cream (optional, but highly recommended)
Heat the milk gently in a heavy pan together with the cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, cloves and vanilla. Maintain a low heat and add the raw cacao powder, Sweet Freedom and alcohol, mixing each ingredient in with a metal balloon whisk. Continue mixing and taste to ensure you have the right combination of ingredients (add more to taste if desired) and mix in the double cream before drinking or top with whipped cream. Remember to leave on a very low heat so as not to boil away the alcohol!
