Don't knock it till you've tried it. This rich, delicious, and kicky hot chocolate might make you abandon your traditional ties. No marshmallows needed; this is for grown-ups. Everything in this recipe can be altered to suit your taste, however I recommend following the recipe to the letter the first time you try.

MAYAN HOT CHOCOLATE
From Silk Soymilk, posted here for safe-keeping because I don't keep the cartons around after the soymilk's been drunk. Really good for a dessert drink after a Mexican feast or something a little less traditional to warm you up on a cold day! Want to make it cocktail party edition? Add a little creme de cacao, Baileys, and rum!

HOT CHOCOLATE MAYAN STYLE
When Cortez and those guys arrived in Aztec country, they were unimpressed by these little dark brown beans everyone seemed to carry around, until they learned these were money -- 100 cacao beans would buy a slave. Probably Xocatl was actually developed as a food by Mayan peoples farther south, the beans were a hot trade item, before they finally got ground up and drunk as hot chocolate. You can just make cocoa your usual way (which is perhaps by adding hot water to a pre-mixed envelope), and we can't grind the beans, but here's a bit more authentic way

Steps:
- Chop the chocolate and heat it in the water until melted.
- Add honey, salt, and beat the hot chocolate water with a balloon wire whip as you add th warmed milk.
- To make it more frothy and give more food value, you can beat up an egg or two, add hot chocolate to it, then pour it into the chocolate cooking pot and continue to whip, (but this isn't authentic).
- Serve the hot chocolate in mugs with cinnamon-bark stick stirrers in each.
MAYAN HOT CHOCOLATE BROWNIES
This new spicy take on brownies is a huge hit! These brownies are moist and fudgy and not cake-like. If you are not a lover of spice or heat, cut the spices in half or even more but you will be amazed at how the heat warms you up just like a big cup of hot chocolate! I don't ways add the marshmallows but they make a nice festive...

Steps:
- 1. Pre-heat oven to 350. Spray 13 x 9 cake pan with non-stick cooking spray or grease bottom.
- 2. In a large bowl, mix together oil, sugar and eggs. Mix dry ingredients (including 1tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp chili powder & 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper) in a separate bowl and then combine. Stir together to incorporate, 50 strokes.
- 3. Spread into prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes at 350 until a toothpick inserted one inch from the edge comes out clean. When done, set aside to cool slightly.
- 4. Mix the frosting with the final 1 tsp of cinnamon and spread over brownies. I like to spread mine on while still slightly warm so the frosting melts onto the brownies almost like a glaze.
- 5. Top with mini-marshmallows lightly sprinkled (through mesh strainer) with cinnamon &/or cocoa powder if desired.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate. The higher the cocoa content, the richer and more flavorful your hot chocolate will be.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. A pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or cayenne pepper can add a unique depth of flavor to your hot chocolate.
- If you don't have a molinillo, you can use a whisk or a blender to froth the milk.
- Serve your hot chocolate with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
Conclusion:
Mayan hot chocolate is a delicious and unique beverage that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, spicy flavor and frothy texture, it is sure to please everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give Mayan hot chocolate a try. You won't be disappointed!
