HOT PEPPERMINT PATTY

Steps:

• 1. Stir liqueur and Rumple Minze into hot chocolate. Top with whipped cream. Garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder. Enjoy! Just for fun, you can also cut a small thin wedge out of a peppermint patty candy and hang it in the rim of the glass for garnish, also. Only cut in to the center. (You can also garnish with a peppermint stick, peppermint candy, or candy cane.)

PEPPERMINT HOT CHOCOLATE

Steps:

• Heat the milk and half-and-half in a saucepan on medium heat to just below the simmering point. Remove the pan from the heat and add the semi-sweet and bittersweet chocolates. When the chocolates are melted, whisk in the cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla extract, and espresso, if using, and whisk vigorously. Reheat gently and pour into cups or mugs.
• Crush 4 candy canes (I place them in a plastic bag and break them up with a wooden rolling pin). Stir 1/2 tablespoon of crushed candy cane into each mug, top with a dollop of whipped cream, sprinkle with crushed candy canes, and put a whole candy cane stirrer into each mug. Serve hot.
• Place the cream, sugar, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on medium-high speed only until the cream makes soft peaks.
• Yield: 1 1/2 cups
