Mexican Hot Chocolate
Report
Dark and chocolatey, with a hint of spice, this Mexican Hot Chocolate is creamy and cozy. This is easy to make from pantry staples, and makes just enough for 2 servings.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 2 oz dark chocolate chopped
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of chile powder
- Pinch of cayenne pepper optional
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the milk, chocolate, sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, chile powder, and cayenne powder (if using).
- Turn the heat to medium and cook, whisking often, until the chocolate is melted and everything is combined. Remove from the heat.
- Add the vanilla extract, then pour into mugs to serve.
Notes
- I used a dark chocolate bar from Trader Joes - it didn’t have a percentage on it. The darker the chocolate, though, the less sweet the hot chocolate will be. You can add more or less sugar to taste.
- If the heat is not for you, feel free to leave out the chile powder and the cayenne pepper.
- I like to serve this with homemade whipped cream.
