Belgian Hot Chocolate image

A yummy hot chocolate recipe by David Lebvitz. A head chocolatier from Brussels gave him this recipe and it became one of his favorites. Use good quality chocolate for this recipe and it will pay off! Serving: In Belgium, this is often served with a poof of whipped cream and chocolate curls. Storage: The hot chocolate mixture can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
