Blushing Hot Chocolate image

This take on hot chocolate is decidedly grown up and is the perfect serving size for one. I use a local red wine called "Misbehaving Red" that truly is one of a kind!

Time 15m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ cup fat free half-and-half
¼ cup whipping cream
¼ cup fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (preferably 70% cacao), finely chopped
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch ground cinnamon
¼ cup red wine

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 of the half-and-half and 1/2 of the cream into a saucepan over low heat. Add chopped chocolate to the warmed cream mixture, whisking constantly (to prevent scalding) until chocolate is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in remaining half-and-half, remaining cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
  • Add red wine and allow to bubble for about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into a coffee mug to serve.
