      Title: Peppermint Hot Chocolate
 Categories: Five, Beverages, Candy, Booze, Dairy
      Yield: 2 Servings
 
  1 1/2 c  Whole milk
    1/4 c  Chopped high-quality
           - semisweet chocolate bar or
           - pieces
      6 tb Peppermint schnapps *
           Whipped cream (opt)
           Crushed peppermint candy **
 
  In a small saucepan heat 1/2 cup of the milk over low heat
  just until bubbles appear around the edge. Whisking
  constantly, add the chocolate and heat until chocolate is
  melted.
  
  Add the remaining milk. Whisk until combined and heated
  through.
  
  Spoon half of the schnapps into each of two 8-ounce mugs;
  add hot chocolate.
  
  Top each serving with whipped cream and sprinkle with
  crushed candy.
  
  * For a nonalcoholic version, use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon
  peppermint extract in place of the schnapps.
  
  ** To crush peppermint candy, break a candy cane or
  peppermint stick into 1-inch pieces. Cover and process in
  a food processor. Or place candy pieces in a self-sealing
  heavy plastic bag. Cover with a towel; use a wooden mallet
  or rolling pin to crush the candy.
