More Hot Chocolate

I was on my way to The City Bakery for the third time this month to try their hot chocolate of the day. Looking in the window, I saw contented people chatting away while they shared delicious pastries. But upon closer inspection, I realized that the counter was being cleared of goodies. The door was locked; I had gotten there too late.

If you also experience this unhappy turn of events, there is a solution: you can make your own flavored hot chocolate at home. A basic recipe is provided, as well as variations like mint and cardamom. There is even a recipe for marshmallows!
