Hot Mint Chocolate
"Like hot chocolate, but want to spice it up a bit? Here's a hot chocolate with a difference! If in Europe, I'd recommend using After Eight or Fazer mints, one per glass - or any other dark chocolate with mint crème filling."

Yummy indeed! Had After Eight mints, felt like having a cup of hot chocolate, and thought, oh hey, why not throw a mint in? I just knew someone had thought of the same thing and that there would be a recipe for it here on Zaar! :-D Made one big mug using 250 ml milk, one After Eight mint and 3-4 ts of Dumle hot chocolate powder (the mint dissolved completely - nothing to spoon out! :-). Ahh!! -
I was freezing and this was a nice tasting warmer upper. Will make again. Thankds kolibri. Bullwinkle -
This is tasty and comforting on a chilly day! It's amazing that something so simple could taste so good. I used Pearson mint patties and they worked out well. The chocolate melted and the mint filling was great when eaten with a spoon. I like things sweet, so I used vanilla rice milk in place of the milk. Personally, I would have preferred it even sweeter, but that may have been the type of mints I used. This was very yummy!
