It is so good that it can work as a stand-alone dessert. Or a digestif. Or the most delicious face mask ever. Basically, this hot chocolate can be anything you want it to be, because it’s so amazing and bad ass. Believe.

Make lots of this and serve it to your friends and family and watch them flip their lids. It’s easy as hell and only takes a few minutes to put together. Plus, you can add booze to it. Orange liqueur is a personal favorite, but Kahlua or Irish cream would also be stunning, to be sure. If you’re serving it to kids or teetotalling Santas, you can top it with whipped cream or marshmallows.

    I don’t know how I found out about these things. It must be a sixth sense or something. Better than Haley Joel Osment seeing dead people.

    To the point. You must have a sixth sense, too, to post this today of all days: National Chocolate Covered Anything Day.

    That looks warm and tasty. Maybe next time y’all can go down to Oaxaca and shoot. There you could use freshly ground real Mexican chocolate and Mexican vanilla beans. Then you could write your trip off your taxes as a business expense and take dad with you as your interpreter wink, wink. love dad

    Is it possible to make this without the spices? I can’t stand cinnamon, but homemade hot chocolate sounds wonderful.

    That’s a great recipe but here’re a couple of suggestions to make it even quicker.
    Empty a large can of evaporated milk (not the sweetened stuff) into a saucepan & bring it to a boil. While it’s heating up whisk in 2 tsp cocoa, 2 tsp sugar, the chile or red pepper, and a big pinch of salt. Some cinnamon or vanilla bean is ok too depending on what you have nearby.
    Bring to a boil for about a minute and strain it into your cup. Enjoy…

    So, ah, when are you going to show us how to make peach tamales?

    hey hilah i was wondering if i could just put normal chocolate in the drink and also one more thing do i have to put cayenne pepper in the mexican chocolate for it to taste the same.

      Hi Emma,
      If you use a regular sweet chocolate, you can reduce the amount of sugar called for and it should still work. And you can leave out the cayenne pepper if you like; it won’t be exactly the same, but it will still be great with just cinnamon!

    Hey Hilah!

    Superb recipe! but what If I want to add some alcohol into it? When do I do tht? and won’t the spirit evaporate because of the high temperature of the drink?

    1. Hilah Avatar
      Hilah

      Hi Mohit! Add alcohol after you’ve poured it into cups. It’s not hot enough at that point to evaporate it. Enjoy!

      Mohit..

      Drink it faster or add twice as much alcohol. Both have worked for me..

      Always happy to help…

    Have you e’er had the pleasure of using one of those awesome wooden mixer/frother things? (I don’t know what they’re called.) A friend gave me one from Mexico, and it is sooo beautifully carved, and makes a wonderfully authentic Mexican-style hot chocolate.
    Love to you and the babe…

      Hi! I think they are called a molinillo? I haven’t ever used one, but it seems like fun. 🙂
      Thank you. We are having such a great time with this little baby. Can’t wait for him to make a video appearance in the kitchen soon!
