Ingredients
Spicy Hot Chocolate:
- ¼ cup bittersweet chocolate chips (about 1oz)
- 1 cup milk OR full-fat coconut milk
- 2 chilis de arbol, split open OR ½ tsp red chili pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Mocha Latte:
- 4 ounces brewed espresso (more or less as desired)
- ½ cup milk for frothing (use at least 2%, skim won't froth well) OR full-fat coconut milk
- To Serve (Optional): whipped cream, extra cinnamon
Instructions
- Make hot chocolate: In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup milk over medium heat until boiling. Remove from heat immediately, strain out peppers with a slotted spoon, and quickly add chocolate and cinnamon. Stir until chocolate melts. Taste hot chocolate, and add more chili if desired.
- Next, brew espresso and steam milk. If you don't have a milk steamer, heat milk on stovetop and use a hand-held frother or immersion blender to create some froth (froth optional but recommended).
- Divide hot chocolate between two mugs. Pour half of the espresso into each cup and stir to blend the coffee and chocolate.
- Pour milk into each espresso, holding back the froth with a spoon. Top with foam.
- Optional: Top lattes with whipped cream and dust with more cinnamon. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Nutrition information assumes 2% milk.
