Time 22m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup whole milk, or milk of choice
3 ½ oz dark chocolate, plus more for topping
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 dried chiles de arbol
1 cinnamon stick, toasted
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cajeta
3 tablespoons marshmallow fluff

Steps:

  • Roughly chop the chocolate.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the milk, chocolate, brown sugar, chiles, and cinnamon stick. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and well combined, 10-12 minutes.
  • Drizzle the cajeta around the rim of an oven-safe mug, letting a little bit drip down the outside.
  • Carefully strain the hot chocolate through a fine-mesh sieve into the mug. Stir in the vanilla. Spoon the marshmallow fluff on top.
  • Using a hard torch, carefully toast the top of the marshmallow fluff until golden brown. Shave more chocolate on top, if desired.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!
