Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate
This month is a celebration of fall here on the blog. I started the celebration with this Mini Pumpkin Cheesecake Dessert. This week I decided to combine two of my favorite flavors pumpkin and chocolate. There are many ways to get into the autumn spirit. For me, it’s the days getting darker earlier, the slow but noticeable changes on the trees, but more importantly, the desire for a hot chocolate drink. This Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate recipe is so simple but nevertheless delicious!
Tips and tricks
- You can use any type of milk
- There’s no need for sugar as the chocolate provides enough sweetness
- Keep whisking at all time to make sure all ingredients are well incorporated
- It’s important to let the hot chocolate sit for at least 2 minutes before serving it.
