Hot Chocolate

Cooking Instructions

In small microwaveable bowl, combine chopped chocolate and salt. In microwave, heat heavy cream at 100% (high) power until very hot. Pour over chocolate. Let stand about 1 minute, then whisk until smooth (if necessary, microwave for short intervals at 50% (medium) power, stirring well after each, until smooth). Heat light cream in microwave at 100% (high) power until very hot; gradually add to bowl, whisking constantly and scraping sides of bowl with rubber. If necessary, reheat hot chocolate in bowl at 50% (medium) power for short intervals until very hot, whisking well after each. Divide evenly between two small mugs. Add optional vanilla or liqueur. Garnish with lightly sweetened whipped cream.

Serve immediately.
