Notes
- We think the sweetness in this is perfect, but that comes down to preference. To make it sweeter, or even to reduce the sweetness, just adjust the amount of sugar used.
- For a little kick of heat, you could add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the hot chocolate.
- Don't let the milk boil, you need to heat it on low.
- Make sure you don't heat the Baileys, and you are just stirring it in at the end, otherwise the alcohol will burn off.
- To make this a really frothy hot chocolate, use a milk frother.
- You can use a liquid sweetener rather than granulated if you prefer.
