My husband and I liked this hot chocolate. I thought it was a 5 star recipe but my husband thought it needed more maple flavor so he added more to his. I am adding this to my growing list of hot chocolate recipes. It's a keeper. Thanks Whisper. Bullwinkle. -
Easy,warming , comforting and chocolaty with out being overly so . I used semi sweet chocolate. The only diffrent thing I did was to cook it directly on the heat instead of on a dbl boiler and it worked out fine.

I live near Rochester NY with my husband and our 18-year-old cat, Fluffy. It's actually Fluffy's house, but he allows us to live here as long as we pamper him and feed him generously. Our daughter, Kree, whom some of you know from Zaar, is also living with us again while she begins a new business venture in real estate. She's the one who got me hooked on Zaar and taught me to try new recipes rather than stay in the cooking rut I was in.
In my free time I like to take long rides or sit by the water, both of which I find very relaxing. I also like to do counted cross-stitch and read. I dabble in photography, always looking for that elusive 'perfect' shot. I did more cooking before I started working full-time, and plan to again when I retire (still years away, but dreaming).
