Even here in sunny California it gets chilly at night (it got all the way down to 55 degrees F Thursday night! Oh my!).  There is no better way to warm up than a good hot chocolate.  Here’s a recipe for an indulgent, creamy hot chocolate that comes from the book Hot Chocolate by Michael Turback.  We’ve added a few accoutrements of our own to transform it into a drinkable S’more.

Double Chocolate Hot Chocolate

• 1 1/3 Cups Heavy Cream
• 1 1/2 Cups of Whole Milk
• 11 oz. Dark Chocolate finely chopped
• 5 oz. Mile Chocolate finely chopped
• 3 Tbs. Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• pinch of salt
• Graham crackers, crumbled
• Big bowl of Vanilla Bean Plush Puffs

In a heavy saucepan, heat the cream and milk together until bubbly around the edges.  Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolates, the cocoa powder and the salt.  Let sit for 15 seconds, then whisk until smooth.  Top mugs of the chocolate milk with the Plush Puffs and sprinkle with crumbled graham crackers.
