I'm looking for an original hot chocolate book for the holidays. Can anyone help me out?What is the best hot chocolate recipe book out there?
I do not know about a book but here are some good recipes
MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE
1 entire circle of Abuelitas brand chocolate
4 wholes cinnamon sticks
1 cup sugar
marshmallows if desired
Place the cinnamon sticks in a microwave dish with water and heat in microwave.
Allow the water to become very hot - to a boiling point. Turn off microwave and allow the cinnamon sticks to steep in the water until the water is cinnamon colored.
Once done, place the water (hot) in the blender and add the entire circle of Abuelitas chocolate and the cup of sugar.
Blend on high so it will get foamy. Once the chocolate is dissolved, just pour it into cups and top with marshmallows. You can add more or less sugar to taste as desired.
This recipe is much better than American hot chocolate.

SARAH'S BEST HOMEMADE HOT CHOCOLATE
1 tbsp. cocoa powder
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. water
1 c. milk
a bit of vanilla, if desired
Combine cocoa, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Heat it on low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the paste from sticking to the pan. After about 1 to 2 minutes, add milk and vanilla. Mix it all together until it reaches your preferred temperature.

WHITE HOT CHOCOLATE
2 oz. milk chocolate, for garnish
12 oz. high-quality white chocolate, coarsely chopped
6 c. whole milk
2 c. heavy cream
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
peppermint sticks, for garnish
whipped cream, for garnish
(be sure to use a top-quality white chocolate to ensure the best flavor, such as Barry Callebaut white chocolate chunks, baking bars or Schokinag white chocolate baking chunks)
Using a vegetable peeler, shave milk chocolate into curls; set aside.
Place white chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl; set aside.
Place milk and cream in a medium saucepan set over medium heat until bubbles begin to form around edges of pan, about 4 minutes. Immediately pour mixture over white chocolate.
When chocolate begins to melt, stir to combine. Whisk in vanilla. Continue whisking until a light foam forms.
Serve immediately, garnished with peppermint sticks, whipped cream, and chocolate curls.

PEPPERMINT HOT CHOCOLATE
hot cocoa mix
peppermint sticks (candy cane)
mint extract
Prepare hot cocoa the way you normally would, then add mint extract (to taste) and mix. To serve, add a scoop of whipped cream and put a peppermint stick in the middle.
Cook's Note: Creme de Menthe liqueur can be substituted for mint extract and may also be whipped into the whipped cream for extra flavor. Enjoy!
