Advent Activity #2 - Make gourmet homemade hot chocolate(from my brother-in-law B. L. - printed in our Family Cookbook)
Gourmet Hot Chocolate
1 lb of high quality chocolate (Ghirardelli) - I picked up Andes Mints and Hershey's Cookies and Cream candy bars ... for variety
1 c brown sugar
1 c cocoa
Prepare ahead of time and store. Use a food processor and grind up chocolate. Add cocoa and brown sugar. Put into a container - it will last for months. Heat milk in microwave or stove top until nearly boiling. Add 1/4 cup of chocolate mixture to each 1 c serving of hot milk. Blend using a hand blender until frothy. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
Update: We just made this. It is YUMMY! My favorite was the mixture of the cookies and cream candy bar by Hershey's combined with the Ghirardelli White Vanilla chocolate. My kids loved the mint. This is a fun mix to keep around!
