Almond Hot Chocolate, A simple but oh so yummy recipe from the Almond Board of California , Photo’s may be seen here in the Savor gallery: www annacia com I wish I could give this more than 5 stars This has to be one of the very best hot chocolates I have made The almond milk (which I most always have on hand) gives it a perfect body and consistency I know that it’s an oft used word but I can’t think of a better one to describe the texture, it’s pure silk The taste is heavenly, the bittersweet is not wasted in this elegant cup of goodness The single drawback (for me) is that it makes small cups used a smallish tea cup and it took most of the batch, when I have drunk some out I added the rest and I believe that it was less than 1/4 of a cup that I added Don’t be shy, double this recipe if you want two mug’s I promise, you won’t be sorry :D, A simple but oh so yummy recipe from the Almond Board of California
