This is something I came up with one evening after see a story about a company that was doing quite well selling cocoa with chili peppers in it. This recipe does use dark cocoa powder not the regular cocoa powder.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup dark cocoa, not the light brown baking cocoa
1/4 cup splenda brown sugar blend
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup water
3 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
cinnamon stick (optional)
whipped cream (optional)
Directions:
1. Combine cocoa, sugar, cinnamon, chili powder and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly.
2. Add milk, continuing to whisk constantly till heated thoroughly, But do not boil.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla; serve in mugs.
4. Can garnish with cinnamon sticks and whipped cream.
