Festive hot chocolate with rum

With the holidays coming up nothing is better than a festive hot chocolate. Using a chocolate bar to make hot chocolate gives it the ultimate rich taste. I prefer dark chocolate which I will use it for this recipe. You can always use a milk bar instead if you like. For a more festive twist add a splash of dark rum.

RECIPE for 2 servings

1. 1 dark or milk chocolate bar

2. 2 cups of milk

3. whipped cream

4. chocolate sauce for decoration

5. pinch of salt

6. a bit of sugar

7. splash of dark rum

Start with simmering the milk on a low temperature without bringing it to a boil. Add a chopped chocolate bar and whisk until melted. Add a pinch of salt and sugar as needed.

Take some nice mugs and pour in the hot chocolate. Add the whipped cream and decorate with chocolate sauce, candy canes or other preferred decorations. Relax and enjoy!
