Spicy Mexican hot chocolate with vanilla, cinnamon, and a touch of chile for cozy nights.
Ingredients:
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 1 teaspoon Urfa biber (Turkish chile pepper)
  • 6 cups milk
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 0.5 cup whipped cream, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon grated bittersweet chocolate
Instructions:
  • Carefully slice open the vanilla bean with a sharp knife. Fill a tea infuser with Urfa biber.
  • In a pot, mingle the aromatic vanilla bean, spicy Urfa biber, creamy milk, and fragrant cinnamon stick.
  • Heat milk over medium heat until steaming with small bubbles forming, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove Urfa biber. Reduce heat to low. Add chocolate and sugar; stir until chocolate is melted, about 2 minutes. Remove cinnamon stick and vanilla bean before serving.
  • Divide the mixture into cups and add a swirl of whipped cream on top. Finish by decorating with grated bittersweet chocolate.
