Hot Chocolate Weather has Arrived in the Northwest

It's that time of year again, Sunday morning hot cocoa. 

The Spanish are known to be crazy for chocolate,
since they “discovered” it in the New World 500 years ago.
As in centuries past, today the Spanish
drink rich hot chocolate for breakfast, so thick that you can stand a churro
in it! If the only hot cocoa you’ve ever had is the kind made with powdered
envelopes of mix and hot water, you won’t recognize this incredibly rich and
flavorful drink. In fact, once you try the Spanish version of hot chocolate,
you might be hooked!


Blanxart Hot Chocolate 

In a pot on the stove top melt contents of bag in one liter of milk.
For a lighter hot chocolate, add chocolate slowly until desired thickness is reached.
