Chocolate Mixture

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Chocolate

    In a saucepan, combine the Mexican chocolate and milk. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

  2. 2

    Add Spices

    Add the cinnamon stick, vanilla extract, sugar, and a pinch of salt to the chocolate mixture. Stir well to combine.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer while stirring occasionally. Let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes to blend the flavors.

  4. 4

    Remove from Heat

    Remove the saucepan from heat and discard the cinnamon stick. You can blend the mixture if you prefer a frothy texture.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Pour the hot chocolate into mugs and serve immediately, optionally topped with whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
