Weekend Cooking; Easy and Slightly Spicy Hot Chocolate

For me, one of the simple pleasures in life is a cup of hot chocolate. It is also something that is really easy to make and it doesn't require a bucketload of ingredients. So today, I wanted to share with you the recipe I tend to use when I'm making hot chocolate from scratch.

Hot Chocolate

1 liter milk

100 grams dark chocolate, in small pieces

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla sugar

1/4 chili powder

1 tablespoon honey

Put all ingredients in a saucepan and bring it slowly to a boil. Stir all the time, so the melting chocolate blend in well with the milk. When it boils, take it off the stove and ladle into big mugs. This recipe is for around three or four mugs/cups, depending on how big the mugs are.

Feel free to add marshmallows or whipped cream, if that is for your liking.
