Chocolat

This recipe from monalisa hota- I will link to my version as soon as I try it out... kamra als ohad his 2 cents (look for at the end of the blog)
My hot chocolate (as put together intuitively based on other recipes from the net):

Ingredients (for 1 cup of hot chocolate):
1 packet Hershey's spl. dark hot chocolate mix;

1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp coffee
a pinch of chilli peppers
2 TBS chocolate chips or plain dark chocolate
whipped cream (optional)

1. melt the chocolate chips (along with chilli peppers and coffee) INDIRECTLY. You could put them in a ceramic bowl/cup and put that over hot water. Occasionally supply heat until it melts. Then add about 1/4th warm milk little by little and heat the mixture until it blends well and is thick. ( I read somewhere that if chocolate is melt this way, it tastes better).
2. In another cup, pour the mix and add little cup warm milk to it to make the mix muddy.
3. Mix both mixtures and heat over low flame until it simmers for 2-3 min. Add the remaining milk gradually while stirring. Keep stirring to prevent from sticking on the bottom. When its thick enough like a syrup, pour out into a mug and have a blast. (you may add whipped cream but it won't stay over the hot chocolate).
You can of course make it as thick or thin to your taste by adding water/milk.
Enjoy the deadly mix!!!


Kamra's 2 cents:
In step 2) the mix is the 'Hershey's spl. dark hot chocolate mix'. It can be replaced be any cocoa mix. But the more bitter and less sugary it is, the better it would be. We couldn't find such a cocoa mix though. Right mona ?

Chilli peppers is the key here. But put very little otherwise it can become really hot.

and I guess if those chocolate chips were also dark and less sugary it would have tasted better.
