MAYAN HOT CHOCOLATE

Don't knock it till you've tried it. This rich, delicious, and kicky hot chocolate might make you abandon your traditional ties. No marshmallows needed; this is for grown-ups. Everything in this recipe can be altered to suit your taste, however I recommend following the recipe to the letter the first time you try.

MAYAN BANANA "ICE CREAM" PIE



Mayan Banana

This is loosely based on a dessert I love, my mom 's frozen peanut butter pie. Of course, I adore Haagen Dazs Mayan chocolate ice cream, too, so I thought I would try to combine the 2. You may not need the full half cup of butter for the crust, but I live at high altitude and its super dry, so I need it all!! The chocolate chips can be adjusted based on how chocolate-y you want it, but when it's frozen, it is best to have the mini ones! I may say it serves 8, but my boyfriend thinks it should only serve 2... haha Cook Time is Freezing Time

MAYAN HOT COCOA



Mayan Hot Cocoa image

Inspired by the movie, "Chocolat"! Cocoa was used by the Aztec and Mayan as a sacred drink. It was brewed with various spices and drank unsweetened as part of ceremonies. This recipe uses pure cocoa and several spices, including chili peppers. The flavor is very rich and aromatic, like a dark perfume. Experiment with the sweetness to your liking.

Time 40m

Yield 4 1-cup mugs of cocoa

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups milk
1/2 cup cocoa powder (I used the Dutch brand, Droste)
1 teaspoon flour or 1 teaspoon Wondra Flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
3 whole cloves, crushed
1/4 teaspoon chili pepper, crushed
1 cinnamon stick, broken up
2 teaspoons powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cornstarch (dissolved in 1 tablespoon of water) (optional) or 1 teaspoon Wondra Flour (dissolved in 1 tablespoon of water) (optional)

Steps:

  • Sift the cocoa powder and flour.
  • Measure out 4 cups of milk. From the 4 cups of milk, slowly whisk about 1/4 cup of it, a little more if necessary, into the cocoa/flour mix until it becomes a paste. If you add milk too fast, you get clumpy cocoa. If that happens, use a hand blender to smooth it out.
  • When all the cocoa and flour are a paste (no more dry flour,) add the remaining spices (sugar, nutmeg, cloves, peppers, and cinnamon).
  • Heat the rest of the 4 cups of milk in a double-boiler or a saucepan over medium.
  • Add the cocoa/flour/spices mix to the hot milk in the double-boiler. Stir constantly to keep it from burning.
  • If you prefer a slightly thicker drink, you can add the optional cornstarch/water mixture now. Continue stirring on the heat until it's to your desired thickness. Not too long; you don't want to be forced to use a knife and fork. ;D.
  • When the cocoa is ready (it takes about 10-15 minutes until the flavor and heat level are *just right*), strain the cocoa in a fine sieve to remove the cloves and cinnamon pieces. (Careful, it could splatter - I found out last night. *grrr*) Then add the powdered sugar and vanilla and stir.
  • If you like, you can put whipped cream on top, add small marshmallows, or add a stick of cinnamon for stirring.
