I tried this recipe last night and it was a disaster. The hot chocolate was too thick and the whipped cream was too runny. I don't know what went wrong.

I'm not usually a hot chocolate person, but this recipe changed my mind. The vanilla whipped cream really takes it to the next level. I also added a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg for a little extra flavor. So delicious!
