Chocolate Coffee

 
Winter is coming and I that’s when I start looking for some really delicious hot drinks to keep me warm, at least inside.  If you are a chocolate lover, you will love this one.
 
2 Tbsp. instant coffee
¼ cup sugar
Dash of salt
2 ½ oz. squares unsweetened chocolate
1 cup water
3 cups milk
Whipped cream
 
In a saucepan combine coffee, sugar, salt, chocolate and water.  Stir over low heat until chocolate has melted.  Simmer 4 minutes, stirring constantly.  Gradually add milk, stirring constantly until heated.  When piping hot, remove from heat and beat with mixer on low until frothy.  Pour into cups and top with dollops of whipped cream.  Depending on cup size, makes 4-6 servings.
 
Changes – You might want to try some of the flavored instant coffees such as hazelnut.
