Hot Chocolate
4 cups of whole milk
8 ounces of chocolate (60% cacao, preferably)
3 teaspoons of powdered sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon of salt

METHOD
1 Finely chop the chocolate into small pieces. The pieces have to be able to dissolve easily in the liquid.
2 Place the milk into a small, thick-bottomed pot on low heat and bring to a low simmer. Whisk once in a while to ensure that the milk doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
2a If you plan to steep herbs or spices, add the herbs or spices to the milk, bring to a simmer then take off heat and allow to steep for 10 minutes. Strain the liquid then place back into the pot and return to a simmer.
3 Add the vanilla, powdered sugar, salt, and chocolate and whisk vigorously until the chocolate has melted.
3a If using liquors add them to the chocolate.
4 Heat for another 4 minutes, constantly stirring.
Serve. Add a dollop of whipped cream if you want.
Serves 4.

Favorite Variations
Steep a vanilla bean and a cinnamon stick in the milk while simmering. After whisking in the chocolate and letting it rest and reheat, cool it down a tad with a small bit of cream and throw some orange zest on top to perk it all up.

I like rum in my hot chocolate. Rum is good. Particularly Sailor Jerry's

When living in the Midwest and particularly while living in Colorado during those cold winters, there was nothing better than some rum infused hot chocolate at night. I don't like drinking coffee at night and when I wanted a hot drink at night, I'd want some hot chocolate- especially with some sort of alcohol. I love adding rum to my hot chocolate and another good liquor to add to your hot chocolate is brandy.
