Ingredients: |
|
|
2 cups hot chocolate, cooled
1 cup cold strong coffee
Sugar to taste
3/4 cup up brandy
1/4 cup whipping cream, whipped

4 cups milk
1 vanilla pod or 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
1-1/2 cups boiling water

Directions:

FOR THE HAPPY MARRIAGE: Combine the chocolate and coffee in a mixing bowl, then sweeten to taste. Whip vigorously with a wire whisk until frothy. Stir in the brandy, then pour into 2 tall glasses. Spoon whipped cream on top and serve long spoons for stirring. This may be served hot in mugs, if desired. This makes 3 servings.
HOT CHOCOLATE: Scald the milk with the vanilla pod, then remove the vanilla pod.
Place the chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler and melt. Since chocolate scorches easily, it is best to melt it in a double boiler, which takes only ten to twelve minutes. Stir in the sugar and salt and place the top of the double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Add 1 1/2 cups boiling water slowly, stirring constantly, then stir until blended. Add the milk gradually, stirring constantly, then leave over the hot water for 1 minute. Remove the top of the double boiler from the hot water. Beat the Hot Chocolate with a large wire whisk until frothy. Pour into cups and garnish with dollops of whipped cream. This makes about fourteen 1/2 cup servings.
