MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE
This delicious, not-too-sweet Mexican hot chocolate is richly flavored with cocoa and delicately seasoned with spices. The whole-stick cinnamon stirrers come in handy, as the old-fashioned chocolate mixture settles if not stirred before drinking. The blend of cinnamon and chocolate flavors is wonderful! -Kathy Young, Weatherford, Texas

CHOCOLATE CALIENTE: AUTHENTIC MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- The tablets of chocolate de mesa are usually divided into 6 to 8 wedges. Place each tablet on a cutting board and cut with a sharp knife into wedges. Don't worry if they don't cut perfectly-you are going to be dissolving the chocolate .
- Place milk in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Once the first tiny bubbles begin to appear in the milk, add the wedges of chocolate and continue heating, stirring slowly but constantly, until the chocolate has melted. Do not let milk boil; if it looks as if it is going to start boiling, take the pan off the heat for a few minutes, continue to stir, then turn burner down a bit and return pan to heat.
- Drink hot chocolate as is, or place in a blender , half of the amount at a time, and carefully blend mixture until the desired degree of frothiness has been reached.

I think I got this from the Urban Peasant website. It is soooo good to make on a snowy night while curled up with another warm body and a movie.
