Mexican Hot Chocolate

From the Demo: Day of the Dead with Maite Gomez-Rejón
Serves 8

Ingredients:

5 cups milk
2 cups Mexican chocolate, chopped (Valhrona’s Xocopili Spicy Chocolate Pearls is a good choice)

Preparation:

1.  In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and chocolate.�
2.  Stir over medium heat until steaming hot and the chocolate has dissolved.�
3.  Pour into a pot, put a wooden molinillo in the pot and begin whipping the chocolate by rolling the handle quickly back and forth between your palms to produce a frothy drink.  (If a molinillo is not available, blending the chocolate for about 30 seconds produces the same effect.)
4.  Pour into cups and serve immediately.
