Spiced Hot Chocolate! mmmm....
for anyone who enjoys a mug of chocolate milk, then you'll LOVE this!
in a coffee bean grinder, grind up the following into a fine powder:
* 1 large dried jalapeno pepper
* 1 tblsp white sugar
* 1 tblsp brown sugar
* 1 4" cinnamon stick
* 1/2 tsp ginger powder
* 10 whole cloves
* 4 coffee beans
* optional: 1 whole vanilla bean
Mix this powder up with 2 tblsp cocoa powder. Store in a cool dry place.
Mix a tsp of this (or more to your liking) in a mug of hot milk. If you can't find a vanilla bean, then add a teeny bit of vanilla extract into the mug. If you want, add a shot of esspresso into it, that's good too! Top with a teeny bit of whip cream and let it warm you up on a cold day or if you're stargazing on a warm summer night!
