The Cooking Array // Spiced Mexican Hot Chocolate

OH California… We love you when it’s summer, but we want winter when it’s winter! I know it’s felt like summer these past few winter months, but guess what? Rain is FINALLY on its way! This week’s forecast: Cloudy & Rainy! I love spending my rainy days cozied up next to my husband, making comfort food, and of course, indulging in my Spiced Mexican Hot Chocolate. I prefer the real stuff; the Mexican chocolate over regular brands. It really makes a difference. It’s rich, not over overpoweringly sweet, and laced with the perfect amount of cinnamon. 
Ingredients: 
-8 oz milk (I prefer almond milk)
-1 triangle of Ibarra Mexican Chocolate
-1 Tbsp Amaretto Liquor
Directions:
In a medium sauce pan, pour the almond milk, turn the heat on high and stir continually. Grate the Mexican chocolate into the sauce pan & stir until the chocolate flakes dissolve into the milk. Once dissolved, turn the heat off, add the Amaretto liquor, and give it a quick stir. Pour the hot chocolate into the mug, garnish with a cinnamon stick, and if you’re feeling extra sweet, top it with some whip cream. 
Enjoy being cozy!
