Superb Hot Chocolate
- 6 ounces semisweet chocolate bits
- 1 pint heavy cream
- Pinch cinnamon
- Whipped cream flavored with vanilla
- Melt chocolate bits in a double boiler over hot water and stir in the cream.
- Heat just to boiling point, stirring constantly.
- Add the cinnamon and serve in 8-ounce chocolate cups topped with flavored whipped cream.
- For mint flavored chocolate, place a mint patty in the bottom of each cup before pouring in the hot chocolate.
- For a less rich drink, use half milk and half cream, or plain whole milk in place of the heavy cream.
- To vary the drink and make it slightly alcoholic, use 1 to 2 dashes Grand Marnier instead of cinnamon.
