Chocolate: Chocolat chaud

Last night, I took a few swiss chocolate bars and made REAL hot chocolate. Oh my lucky stars. This hot chocolate was like sipping curdling sweet goodness.

The ingredients:

100g chocolat noir (1 very large bar of dark chocolate)
100g chocolat au lait (1 very large bar of milk chocolate)
...depending on your chocolate preferences, you can use one or the other. I prefer a melange of the two!
1/5 L of milk (I'd say roughly 2 cups and it needs to be fatty milk, none of this "non fat" stuff)

Pour the milk into a sauce pan, place under moderate heat and stir constantly until the milk begins to bubble. Dump in small pieces of chocolate. Continue to stir (this is important otherwise the milk will scold). Once the milk turns into a dark and delicious color, your hot chocolate is ready to serve!

Enjoy!
