Let’s get started!

In a medium sized saucepan add the chocolate chips, cocoa powder, chili powder, sugar, heavy cream, and milk and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.

This is my favorite way to drink hot chocolate but you can always leave out the chili for a traditional take instead! Or jazz it up with a few drops of peppermint extract.
